Heiwa Park

The past two weekends, three if you count brushing by, I walked to Heiwa Park. Heiwa is a cemetery park in Nagoya which reportedly became the site for approximately 200,000 gravestones during the reconstruction of Nagoya. Thus far I have explored only the northern area of the 362 acres (only 1/3 of the size of Independence Oaks). The information online about the park in minimal, but I did find this website.Lots and lots of gravestones, they reach to the horizon in this photo.
I still havnt figured out how it works that the center of the park is not green space.These stairs leading up to Heiwa-Do monument are a hot spot for exercise extremists.
