Where is Green-Wood Cemetery?

Frankly, a rather unusual but still worth seeing attraction of Brooklyn is the 1838 opened Green-Wood Cemetery, which is located near the Prospect Park in New York. Even those who normally only spend as little time as possible in cemeteries could feel comfortable here together with numerous squirrels and various birds.

Green-Wood Cemetery: peaceful resting place in the middle of the hectic capital
The well-known New York Cemetery covers an area of 1,9km2 and serves over half a Million people as a final resting place. Famous personalities such as politicians, artists and inventors were also buried here, because, as the New York Times wrote in 1866, it is “… the ambition of New Yorkers to live on Fifth Avenue, to take their walks in Central Park and to lie down with their fathers in Green-Wood for (last) rest.“
