I cannot believe that this stunning utopia, hidden in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Cambridge, is not only free but wheelchair accessible. There are accessible parking options and plenty of flat, paved terrain. The landscaping is stunning and it's so quiet and serene. I highly recommend coming here for a peaceful break from the hectic world.

Cemeteries can teach us things we don’t learn at school. This place has incredible old and magnificent gravestones and mausoleums belonging to common folks and public figures from a long time ago. Grab a map at the entrance, you are gonna need it. You will see and learn the meaning behind the statues and gravestones. You are gonna love this place if you like history, if you like plants (every plants entry and bush are tagged), an architecture, old and new. You have to go up and visit the tower, he has a spectacular view.
