Overview
The père Lachaise is The world's most famous cemetery. The Père-Lachaise welcomes more than 3. 5 million visitors every year. It's name originates from the confessor of King Louis XIV, Father François d'Aix de La Chaise. Located in the east side of Paris, the stroll along the cobblestone pathways is leafy and hilly offering exquisite views of the city. The cemetery is an outdoor museum loaded with remarkable, unique funeral art. But its most alluring features are the final resting spots of celebrities like Jim Morrison, Edith Piaf, Frédéric Chopin, Oscar Wilde, Honoré de Balzac, Eugène Delacroix & Camille Pissarro. Quickly overwhelming in its size, let me guide you with ease to these monumental tombs on an enjoyable walk packed with stories of those laid to rest and of the cemetery itself.
