The largest cemetery in Paris is an extremely peaceful walk as you pay homage to some of the renowned names in history. Regarded as the most prestigious cemetery, this place is a mix of an English park and shrine. On display are multiple styles of funeral art - gothic graves, mausoleums, Haussmanian burial chambers.
An eerie calm will accompany you as you stroll through the cemetery, very unusual from the usual tourist thronged places in Paris. Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde, Edith Piaff, Marcel Proust, Gertrude Stein amidst many others who enriched French life, lie here in eternal peace.
