I went here every day during a summer course to eat a sandwich, and it was lovely. I know, how can cemeteries be "lovely." It is because the cemetery brings a sense of a celebration of life rather than death. Aside from the non-mosscovered marble ornate graves, there are trees everywhere and in the center a huge rotonde of flowers. It is exactly opposite of what you'd expect from stereotypes (at least American ones). Plus if you want to see some historic graves, you can grab a map and ask help desk for guidance.

    One of the famous cemeteries in Paris, where Sartre and Vopova, familiar to the Chinese, also sleep, is a cemetery where the elite of the literary and artistic circles gather, so many of their fans come to pay homage to them.

    This is one of the three cemeteries in Paris. I think it's also the most beautiful one among the three cemeteries. It deserves to be a place where a lot of knowledge and literary elites are buried. It's as comfortable as a big park.

    I went to Montparnasse Cemetery and found the joint grave of Sartre and Beauvoir. I remember what Beauvoir wrote for him when Sartre died - "His death separates us, and my death will reunite us.

    It turned out that not only Wilde's tomb, but also Beauvoir's tomb on the Sartre River was covered with kisses. I only saw Sartpovova, Duras and Ionesco for half a day. I hope I can find Pan Yuliang if I have the chance to go again.

    Some people say that Montparnasse Cemetery is the most literary cemetery. Many famous writers are buried here. Besides visiting celebrity tombstones along the intersection signs, ordinary people's tombstones here often attract me to stop. Sometimes it's surprising when the owner was born, sometimes it's because of beautiful mosaic photos, sometimes it's because of the tombstone itself.

    Similar to Lachez Cemetery, Cimeti üredu Montparnasse Montparnasse Cemetery embodies strong humanistic feelings and is the place where many celebrities sleep. Novelist Maupassant, poet Baudelaire, Vopova, mathematician Pengale, philosopher Jean Paul Sartre and others'cemeteries are all here for future generations to hang on.

    The cemetery is quite good. It's quite big. Once inside, it's like remembering the zombie blockbusters in Europe and America. Many of the crosses are looking a little gloomy there. But there is a real sense of immersion, where local intellectuals are buried.
