Of all the grave sites in the Christopher Columbus Cemetery in Havana, the one to Amelia Goyri is the most visited and revered. An article in the Toronto Star explains why.
To Amelia Goyri are attributed many miracles which occurred after her death. Each of these tablets is a tribute of thanks to her.
A colourful memorial.
I believe this to be a communal or family plot, with each small plaque in memory of a different individual.
Unnamed, but numbered.
Two tiny floral tributes.
This is the fifth in a series of six posts about Cementerio de Cristobal Colón.
Impressive… and nicely photographed!
It was a lovely place. Nice to hear from you Noortje.
Beautifully photographed.
Thank you Sheryl.If I were ever in Havana again, I would go back. It was so big and hard to narrow one’s focus.
Wow. Thank you for this excursion.
You’re welcome. It was a challenge – there was so much to see.
Thank you for sharing …
Not depressing, very serene and meditative.
