hiva oa-calvary cemetery好玩吗-景点地址图片介绍-八度伴旅网

This cemetery is just outside the town and up a hill with nice views of the bay. For many it is a pilgrimage site, for others just a graveyard. You get out of it what you want I expect, but if you are already on Hiva Oa it probably would be a shame to miss the resting place of their "favorite son." Read something on Gauguin's (and Brel's) background to put it in perspective.

It's worth a walk up the hill to see the cemetery if for no other reason than to see the views. It's also interesting to see how cemetery's differ around the world. The famous graves are both near the foot of the hill, I missed Gaugain's at first and searched the whole place for it.

Really very lovely cemetery with white graves and skeletal frangipanis. Worth a visit. get a whole sense of the town from here and some idea of what Gaugin was doing here. Good for photographs. Actually as well as the cemetery the old remnants of settlements are fascinating, and especially the tikis. Worth hiring a car and getting to the site just close to town--do not need a guide. A bit overgrown but you get a sense of what was once here. You must also see the gaugin museum and his House of Joy. Women are very helpful in Gaugin Museum and told us where the grave was.

Worth a trip if you are already on Hiva Oa - but not as a destination itself. Great view from the cemetary itself and the Gaugin's grave site/marker is charmingly rustic.If you are on Hiva Oa you should consider a 4 hour or so drive across island to the Giant Tiki - which is extraordinary - an ancient sacrificial mound with 2,000 year old plus stone Tiki's - YOU MUST use a driver for these and there are plenty around. DO not attempt to drive yourself - the road is "scary" with no guardrails and tremendous drop offs. We had a group of six and paid about $85 each -- BUT be aware that you should have stopped off at one of the local banks first and gotten sufficient French Polynesian Francs first -- drivers don't like US $s or even Euros!

It is where Paul Gauguin is buried and you can see some his arts. It's necessary to pay a fee to enter. There's no many interesting things to do or to see...

We liked all the old grave sites and the view is amazing, as is Hiva Oa. What goes up, comes down and the walk down to town is steep but the road is paved. There are no guard rails and no bathrooms but there are facilites at the Gaugauin Museum.

Les Tombes du Grand Jacques et de Gauguin sont incontournables, redescendez à pieds jusqu'au village pour continuer par la visite des musées qui leur sont dédiés

Wenn man den Aufstieg geschafft hat, findet man gleich am Eingang des Grab Jaques Brels, dem belgischen Sänger. Das Grab Gauguins ist eine Etage höher. Ein Findling als Grabstein ist recht unspektakulär. Bemalte Holzstelen, kleine Steine schmücken das Grab. Vom Friedhof hat man einen wunderschönen Blick auf Atuona und die Bucht. Den Friedhof sollte man auf jeden Fallbesuchen.

Cimetière situé sur les hauteurs du village. Si vous êtes à pied, cela monte pendant longtemps. Très belle vue.

Der in wunderbarer Kulisse gelegene Friedhof ist für einen kleinen Spaziergang wirklich gut geeignet.Sehenswert sind sicher die Gräber von Jacques Brel und Paul Gauguin, aber man kann auch so einfach durch die Reihen gehen, den herrlichen Duft der Blüten wahrnehmen und ein wenig über die Vergänglichkeit des Seins philosophieren.
