A typical Christian Tomb lying on the entrance of cemetery. I used some SOFT FOCUS effects to make the surrounding a bit blur.
|
The thing I like about this cemetery is that the tombs are shady with the Kokko trees around. Chinese folklore says, it is very auspicious to give some shades to the passed one.
|
Some people do not take care of the tombs for some reasons. I have seen hundreds of ruined tombs there. I really feel bad for those who rest in these tombs. Are they thrown out???
|
This tomb becomes like a pile of trash. For Chinese people, it's a MUST to clean and paint. Making tombs look beautiful brings us massive good luck and prosperity.
|
This is called PHILOSOPHY of LIFE. Do you ever realize yourself? One day, we all have to sleep in such place. Forever and Peacefully.
|
This is the tomb of our clan. The Sirname LIM represents the shape of 9 Dragons. The description says "9 Dragons Lim Clan". Proud to be a Lim successor.
