Trumpeldor Cemetery Tel Aviv

There is much for the visitor to ponder here, as they wander through monuments commemorating the lives and deaths of historical figures. The grave markers often feature short biographies of those whose physical remains lie under the earth. Sometimes, the gravestones even describe how the people beneath them had met their end. In this peaceful environment, tourists can dream away the day, imagining the lives of people they never met and never will meet. What a paradox, that in this place of death it is history that comes alive.
