🪦 Cemetery Saturday 💐
Valley of the Temples Memorial Park, Oahu, Hawaii

Fast facts:

- Founded in 1963
- 240 acres
- Wild peacocks and koi carp
- Zen garden
- Award winning Byodo-In Temple, a replica of a 900-year-old Buddhist temple in Japan that was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first Japanese immigrants to Hawaii
- The location has featured in episodes of Hawaii Five-O, Magnum P.I., Lost, seaQuest DSV, and the movie Pearl Harbor

I was prompted to share this magnificent cemetery after it was brought to my attention by an internet buddy (thanks Shyenne!) I'm thinking of making this a regular feature, bringing you a gorgeous cemetery with some fun facts every week or so. What do you think? Feel free to tell me about a location you've been amazed by and maybe I'll share it!

@HisAndHearsePress I've been to this and it's really spectacular. The mountains in the background are equally amazing.

@HisAndHearsePress There were mongeese running around in the open, one of the few times I've gotten good pics of them. The koi in the ponds around it were spectacular.
