Simferopol Grave yard

THE OLD SIMFEROPOL CEMETERY... Between the Central Market and the Radio Market, next to the Lokomotiv Stadium, lies the First Civil Cemetery of Simferopol. Graves from the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century (up to and including the 1960s) are interspersed, at least in the central section and near the central entrance from the Church of All Saints, where the most luxurious monuments are found Sometimes the opulent style of the 19th-century tombstones persists in Soviet-era monuments, so from a distance it's often impossible to distinguish a modern grave from an ancient one. Although the cemetery is poorly maintained and overgrown with shrubs. it nevertheless leaves an impression of strict neatness.
