Hollywood Forever Cemetery   
6000 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA, http://www.hollywoodforever.com/Hollywood/

Dieser Friedhof ist wirklich einzigartig. Hier sind viele Stars begraben. Mitten drin ist ein kleiner See.
This cemetery is kinda  nice. You can also find some graves of famous people. The cemterey includes also a little lake.

Vorne zu sehen ist der beruehmte Gitarrist, Johnny Ramone, geb. John Cummings, 8.10.1948 - 15.09.2004, von den “Ramones”. 
You see here the grave of the famous gitarrist, Johnny Ramone, born John Cummings, Oct 8, 1948 - Sept 15, 2004, from the band “Ramones”.
Auf seinem Stein steht: / His grave stone says:
"If a man can tell if he's been successful in his life by having great friends, then I have been very successful".

Der Friedhof ist wunderschoen angelegt. Man kommt sich fast wie in einem Park vor. Kein Wunder, das Hollywood diesen Friedhof auch als Filmlocation bereits genutzt hat.
Ein Friedhof sollte eine Ruhestaette sein, aber sie haben hier wohl nichts gegen die Zulassung zum Dreh eines Filmes und Konzertevents und Filmvorfuehrungen. Eine Karte ueber den Friedhof kann man fuer US $ 5 vor Ort kaufen. Ohne Mappe findet man die Graeber leider nicht so einfach bis gar nicht.
The cemetery is a nice one. You get kinda a park feeling. No wonder that Hollywood used it for filming. A cemetery should be a quiet place, but here they allow filming, concerts and movie showing. Kinda strange. You can buy a map for $ 5 at the cemetery otherwise you cannot find the graves you are looking for.
 

DAY OF THE DEATH
at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery

Celebrated in Hollywood on November 1, but already on October 24, 2009 they started to celebrate it at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

Decorating the graves, just decoration without any connection to the dead family member, people dressed like the dead, dancing,
singing, acting on stage, food and drinks.

Altar - relatives decorate their relative’s graves

dancing with the beloved dead ... after he woke up from the death only to dance with her for the last time before he “dies again”.
