lexington cemetery印象

This Cemetery has a lot of history behind it, and has beautiful winding roads throughout the site. There are ponds and places to sit and reflect. I normally wouldn't review a cemetery, but the Lexington Cemetery is second only to Arlington-in my opinion.

You may not usually visit cemeteries on your vacation. But we had some time to spare and noticed the neoclassical monuments from the road. Perhaps one of the best landscapes that we have visited, a true sanctuary among centenary trees, lakes and - yes - great pantheons. It is sublime, not the creepy, hallow ground experience that nowadays is harder to encounter. Give it a try!

I love the history of old cemeteries, but in May the cherry blossoms are breathtaking, along with the tulips and even the flowering ground cover puts on a show. The poignancy of the immediacy of beautiful life intermingled with the sadness of lives long ended, is a great opportunity to take photos or just walk and think about things.

This is the most beautiful cemetery grounds I have ever seen, and every one I have shared it with feels the same way!Spring is spectacular but any season is worth the trip.

Wonderful experience of historical grave sites. If you're a history buff, it's a must see. Well maintained cemetery.

Lexington Cemetery is a great place to relax, take in some local history and have a peaceful walk. The grounds are impeccable.

There are so many awesome grave markers in this cemetery (especially the older ones). The two lakes have a selection of ducks/geese and they are fun to watch. I will say though it is easy to become lost and have to wander around a bit to find the main road out, but....just gives you more opportunity to find yet another awesome grave stone. Visit when you have a few hours to explore!

We went there the visit Colonel Sanders grave. What a beautiful area, with shady trees and manicured gardens. There were so many unique statues and monuments erected for loved ones. Wish we had more time, I could have spent the whole day there, so much to see!

This is the place to come for quiet reflextion, learning about Kentucky history, and enjoying nature. There are a few famous Kentuckians buried here. Henry Clay's monument is visable for miles and he faces his old home, Ashland (also a nice place to visit and tour!) The cemetery is also an arboretum and many of the trees are labeled. The is even a map you can follow to find specific species. Some of the trees are magnificent. If you visit in early Spring the weeping cherry trees are gorgeous. A little later and the crepe myrtles are lovely. There is a pretty lake and flowers as well.

I know we are not looking forward to our trip to eternity but I have already decided that The Lexington Cemetery is going to be my final resting place. The property is kept up very nice and it is a place where people stroll when they just want to have a little peace.
