Located in the off-centre historic part of town, the Cathedral of Glasgow and the necropolis right behind it are among the oldest buildings of the city. When I left Glasgow Cathedral, I decided to walk up Glasgow Necropolis, which is right next door. After crossing the Bridge of Sighs, I walked up one of the paths which eventually took me to the top of the hill on which the Necropolis is built. Originally, the land was bought in the 17th century, and in the 19th century it was converted to a cemetery, along the lines of Pere La Chaise in Paris. While it lacks the grandeur of its French example, Glasgow Necropolis certainly looks solemn and is beautifully laid out. When walking on top, while beautiful sunlight casts obelisk and monumental tombstone shadows on the lawn, you can enjoy views over the cathedral, the city and river, but also the industry just next door. This is home to the resting place of some fifty thousand people and therefore has become a real city of the dead. 读别的: (英文) 照片的标签:
