(Old South Cemetery)我们在这座老公墓呆了几个小时,尤其是对联盟军埋葬地感兴趣。这里有一处不错的水塘和湿地,我们照了一些水鸟的照片。估计应该有鳄鱼,不过那天没看到。这里很像佐治亚州(GA)萨凡纳(Savannah)的Bonaventure公墓,不过风景没有那么好。还是值得一游的,而且游客不是很多。邻近还有几处其它公墓,也值得快速参观一下。下午六点关门。
It's amazing how big it is...and the setting is beautiful...the mix of nature...with man...very appropriate place to return to the earth I think. In the background you can catch glimpses of the Ravenal...over a swamp...the pond in the center of the cemetery attracts interesting birds to watch and the headstones are so unique...it is a lot like a sculpture garden...also, visit the couple of surrounding cemeteries.

A lovely, quiet cemetery on the Cooper River. Great for bird watchers & history buffs. Old live oak trees shade grave markers from the late 1700s.

One of the better maintained & beautiful cemeteries we have visited while in Charleston. The office is very helpful with maps & info pertaining to particular grave sites to visit, and were also very informative to learn about. I do suggest checking this place out for its history & beauty.

The Magnolia Cemetery is one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited. The peace and serenity of the atmosphere and the antiquated feel is just overwhelming. Even if cemeteries creep you out, the plants and scenery around the gorgeous headstones and mausoleums are appealing. I've been here twice and each time I love it more and more.

Magnolia is one of the largest and oldest cemeteries I've ever visited and I've visited hundreds of cemeteries. It's literally big enough to get lost in. Don't miss it if you're a taphophile!
