El Parque de los Desvelados (The Sleepless Park): An eerie abandoned park devoted to Death (blog and photoshoot)

Thanks for sharing these photos and thoughts on death. I had no idea that such a park existed, though I know of a forest in Japan where suicide is often committed. A park dedicated to death is really interesting and part of me wonders if it grew out of our earlier notion of the cemetery as more or less a garden for the dead? Thanks for posting this!

Thank you, The Japanese one is a place I would not be able to visit, just too morbid for my taste :(.
There are no dead here (it is rumoured the artist maybe) but these are only pieces of art, memento-moris, this is more like a spectral oniric Tim Burton Fantasy. The overall vibe is very spectral and ghostly, and indeed some kind of sad, but not that scary.
