Christopher Columbus Cemetery, Havana, Cuba
Christopher Columbus Cemetery (Necropolis Cristobal Colon in Spanish) is somewhat laid back just like all of Cuba is. Huge and beautiful, it is almost devoid of people. Sometimes you can see a forgotten piece of bone lying in the grass next to the sidewalk. It is later picked up by an attendant and dropped into a “dropped bones repository” – concrete box containing random bones found here and there around the necropolis.
