Pere Lachaise Cemetery

No one could escape the death. That is the truth, the fact, the thing we are afraid of. Pere Lachaise Cemetery is located in the 20th district of Paris. I got off the metro line 3 at Pere Lachaise station. Even the cemetery map boards are distributed over the place, however if you have got it in your hand, that would be very useful. There are several shops near by selling this map cost about 2 euros. The map could be printed out from the cemetery official website itself.

A number of famous people are buried here. Math students might have heard of Joseph Fourier while the physic ones might have heard of Joseph Louise Gay-Lussac. For those who like classical music might know Chopin, while a number of book worms might be inspired by Oscar Wilde, the novelist, poet and play writer. They and a lot more famous people are all buried here in the cemetery.

The benefits they have brought into this world might be the point of attraction, not that the characteristic of unavoidable truth of nature itself.
