Sibiu via Merry Cemetery & Săpânța Peri Monastery Church

The Merry Cemetery (Maramureş County) is famous for brightly colored tomb markers with naïve paintings describing, in an original and poetic manner, the people who are buried there in addition to scenes from their lives. The Merry Cemetery became an open-air museum and a national tourist attraction.

Each marker has a small protective roof, but still you can tell which ones are the oldest from the weathering.
