“beautiful old cemetery!”
Memorial Park Cemetery was founded in 1924 by E. Clovis Hinds on initial 54 acres (.22 km2).[2] It is located at 5668 Poplar Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee Different species of trees of different ages, as well as bushes, can be found throughout the cemetery, enhancing the atmosphere of a park-like setting. The cemetery is noted for its Crystal Shrine Grotto, a hand-built cave depicting Biblical scenes built by artist Dionicio Rodriguez. The cemetery is owned by the private death care industry company, Northstar Memorial Group, based in Houston.
They've put a lot into making this place feel more like a community park than a graveyard. It might seem odd, but you should spend an hour or two walking around. The place is filled with beautiful sculptures and, of course, the famous Crystal Shrine Grotto!!
