Beautiful, historical and expansive. You can lose a whole day here and not see everything The central tower has a superlative view over the Boston area
A lovely space for walking as well as for exploring different types of gardens. The grounds are extensive. Theres a lights show around the holidays that my friends have enjoyed. Theres a parking area by the front gates, or you can park on designated roads within the cemetery.
absolutely magical after a snow.... a must see in the fall for the foliage too! honestly love this place in all seasons. the view from the washington tower was awesome when i came in the summer/fall but it seemed to be closed today, maybe for the winter? i love i can flip flop between driving and walking by pulling off to the sides of the paths when i want to get out (with the exception of a few paths marked "no parking/walking only") theres also parking at the entrance (all free as of now) if you prefer to walk the entire thing
