A Chinese Graveyard In Miri

In contrast to the next door Islamic graveyard, the Chinese cemetery is a festival. All colorful tiles, rounded tombs, pictures, murals, the kitchen sink from beyond.

OK, maybe not much thought was put into the layout of the place. Just put that body anywhere you find a space.



Typical family plot, snazzy. Graves frequently have portraits of their inhabitants.

Family plot, study in blue. With random side grave.


Details of tile work. Go for ancient religious depictions of maybe a pastoral scene that does not exist in China (or Malaysia).

Another look at the colorful plots.
