… beautiful art everywhere … what a relief not to see so many graves with exposed bones like Naples (seeing them all is the top argument for cremation, imho). Your breathing sounds a lot better than at Naples too … sounds like your hay fever is better and maybe not as many choky graveyard “odors” here as there were in Naples. Glad you won’t have to worry about snake bites too … I’m not a fan of snakes (especially hidden ones) so every time you had to walk into overgrown areas in Naples I caught myself holding my breath. Excellent work again Dan
Thank you very much Michael. Yes it felt like a treat to walk around somewhere nice for a change. I think as well as hay fever Naples is a very polluted city which didn't help either, and no snakes is always good for me ha. Thanks again
that cemetery of Naples has (had) no equals in terms of beauty because they had a stronger cult of the dead. The poor administration (cemeteries don't bring votes) and secularization are the reasons of the current decay
Naples is an exception not the rule in Italy. There are a lot of differences between North and Central Italy and South Italy and Naples is known all over the country for stuffs like those.-
Hi Dan. This cemetery is amazing. So clean and orderly. The architecture is awesome and the designs of the crypts are really stunning. I am totally in awe
If you ever get the chance to visit Buenos Aires, Recoleta Cemetery is *well worth* a visit. You’ll see Evita’s tomb. I’ve been to BsAs 10x and to Recoleta 2 or 3 times.
Thanks Dan. I had premonition about the weather and hoped you would take your waterproofs😁 Nice Cemetary and the rumbles of thunder give it a special ambiance 👍⛈
Your walks are 💯 dead good! So much history and culture, knowledge shared by looking at our historic death rituals across Europe... and beyond??! Thank You for sharing! I'd be pretty spooked with some of your experiences, but you just take the supernatural experiences, and weird caretaker stalker experiences on the chin! Love it! Thank You! x
WOW! What a difference from Naples! We are in another world! Just beautiful, artistic, and religious headstones and masoleums. So peaceful, so quiet, so appropriate for a cemetery. It makes you breathe a sigh of relief after being in Naples. Great video Dan! You never cease to amaze me. ♥️☘️
Magnificent mausoleums, monumental monuments , amazing artwork. .What a stunning place to spend the day. 🙏🏼🌎💖🇺🇸. 😉. If is a museum! Free to visitors. Love a thunderstorm…
Beside butchering names ^^ nice walk, also part of my anchestores are there, look for a grave from Simeoni family, greeting from an austrian/ italian follower 🙂
This was a beautiful cemetery. Know that may sound weird. Lots of very different stones You did a fantastic job. Thank you. Like to see more in this one 😊
Since I opted for cremation decades ago, I do not know why I am so fascinated by these cemetery videos. I guess it is because you make them interesting and show the cultural differences in each country. Your narration is just right--not constantly talking and not too little. You must wear out alot of shoes and be in good shape with all the walking. Thank you!! ⚰️🪦⚱️
Dan….i loved your Naples walks! The shabby side of cemetery’s is a harsh reminder of what will eventually happen to us all! Unless a loving family or city maintains the mausoleums or crypts they will eventually fall to ruin! I personally like the shabby ones! They are more interesting!
Interesting design, most of the privately owned mausoleums feature a building only large enough for stairs to an underground crypt. Very different from Poggioreale of Naples, no? The Italians always lead the world in their stylish designs, even in their tombs!
Oh you should definitely go down or inside if there unlocked. Don’t be frightened to pull back any sheets or lift any lids either. You are far to shy Dan
Dan , do they build up the ground to dig down, or is the underground volts just dug?. I can see why the last few videos had a lot of people protecting their relatives remains, there are some weird ppl in the world who would love to take a skull home 😒

The irony of it all. Most of those bodies are better housed than the living. These things are built for the living and not the dead. The dead aren't that interested. What is important to departed souls is to be remembered and to have they're name spoken to others. And no, we shouldn't need a memorial to aid us in doing so. Funny thing is, those who have returned home Mourne us, they are more alive than we are!
Lavish tombs and funerals are not for the dead, but for the living. The glory, opulence and power of a family has always been shown in the tombs (sorry for my English).

@AndreaAlexandroNal no need to apologise Andrea, your English is excellent, better than many English speaking people. Your absolutely right, we souls residing in the body tend to live through the 'ego' in a materialistic world, hence the self pity mourning and elaborate graves, whereas souls who have returned home to spirit form have no need of the ego or material form. It's good to keep expanding your mind but keep expanding your soul also and your spiritual path in life will be more rewarding while living live in Gratitude. 🙏
Interesting things about Italian cemeteries is if you look at the Ancient Rome they had big crypts and mausoleums, so it’s no surprise that modern Italians do the same thing in a way.
Bello questo video, complimenti! Oggi ti ho pensato perché siamo scesi(abito a Roma) a Salerno per quache affare e siamo entrati a mettere fiori e candele alle tombe dei genitori e nonni di mio marito. Salerno, a circa 70 km da Napoli, è una città sul mare però ci sono anche dei montagne .. devi andare là è un cimitero meraviglioso ! Ogni tomba ha delle luci e fiori, moltissimi fiori... poi devi andare a vedere, vedendo che in Nord Italia, Cimitero Monumentale di Staglieno a Genova. Poi Verano , Roma. Ufffaa ma pioi visitare migliaia di cimiteri... immagini on costiera amalfitana , dove sono stati girati famosi filmi di cinema, i cimiteri sononsulle cime pietrose delle colline che danno verso l'immenso mare... devi andare anche lì ❤ e, scusa se mi permetto darti un amichevole consiglio, se sei amichevoli e non scostumato nessuno ti odierà perché gli italiani sono amichevoli
