The Victorian era
(1837-1901) can be seen as the world's superpower in British history. Its glory inevitably
reflected on how people arranged their funeral and how they decorated their graveyards.

| It was once the guardroom of the graveyard. |
In the past, many Brighton celebrities were buried here after they died, including Reverends Arthur and Henry Wagner, Aliester Crowley, etc. Walking inside the graveyard with around 20 persons in the daylight encourages me to move every step further.
I have never visited and roamed around the ‘graveyard’. The reason is in part due to the horror movie: ‘Pet Semetary(電影:寵物墳場)’ written by Stephen King. Another reason is it could be criticised as an immoral behaviour in Taiwan for disturbing the dead.
However, when we regard it as a way of historical understanding, it suddenly becomes very meaningful. Also, the UK graveyard
is not so scary for its garden-stylish design.
About 2:30 pm, we started
to go inside and we ‘gravely’ read some significant or unique tombs and carefully
listened to intriguing stories about them.
At that time, the grave design has been influenced
by Egyptian and Roman styles.
The Egyptian pyramid is a sign of the infinity of life. If one cannot afford a big and tall Egyptian-style tower, he/she may
consider a smaller one.

Many delicate statues are imported from Italy (Roman style) and gradually ruined by the weather after years. The angel statue poses as 'one hand point to the sky, another hand point at the ground', which means 'please follow the right way from here to heaven.'
Also, rich family members could bury altogehther
and have their own ‘domain’ with a lock on it;

thank you, Nick, to guide us and told us so many stories behind the scene.
墓地探索* _ *
維多利亞時代（1837-1901）可以被視為英國歷史上的世界超級大國。它的榮耀不可避免地反映在人們如何安排他們的葬禮以及他們如何裝飾他們的墓地。
Woodvale火葬場和公墓位於一個淺谷，蜿蜒的小徑掩蓋了巨大的家庭拱頂和古老的樹木，導緻美麗的新哥德式小教堂。“尼克（導遊）描述。
在過去，許多布萊頓名人在他們去世後被埋葬在這裡，包括亞瑟和亨利瓦格納牧師，阿利斯特克勞利等。在白天走進墓地，我們一團約20人，鼓勵我邁前一步。
從來沒有參觀過，在“墓地”周圍遊蕩。原因部分是歸因於恐怖電影：由斯蒂芬金寫的“寵物墳場”（Pet Semetary）。另一個原因是如在台灣它可能會被批評是擾亂死者的不道德行為。
然而，當我們把它作為一種歷史性理解的方式時，它突然變得非常有意義。此外，英國墓地的花園時尚設計使得墓地之旅並不那麼可怕。
大約下午2:30，我們開始進去參觀，我們“嚴肅地”閱讀了一些重要的或獨特的墓葬，並仔細聆聽有關它們的有趣故事。
那時，嚴肅的設計是受到埃及和羅馬風格的影響。
埃及金字塔是生命無限的標誌。如果一個人買不起高大的埃及式塔樓，他/她可能會考慮一個較小的塔樓。
這座墳墓是一位科學家試圖教育民眾並傳授他的知識的遺產。
許多精緻的雕像都是從義大利（羅馬風格）進口的，經過多年的天氣逐漸毀壞。天使雕像姿勢擺著“一隻手指向天空，另一隻手指向地面”，意思是“請從正確的方向走向天堂”。
放在墳墓上的錨點表明死者可以安全地躺在地上，所有的願望都將深深植根於死者身上。
一些有錢人埋葬在相對較高的山上，有著美麗的景色（這在許多國家都是很普遍的），例如這裡最高和最大的人 - 他是一位致力於修建橋樑的著名建築師。
此外，富裕的家庭成員可以埋葬在一起並擁有自己的“域名”並加鎖它;或者將像徵性的標誌或材料（如馬）作為他們美好的終身記憶。
最後，感謝讓我們訪問您莊嚴的“房屋”，並了解有關這片土地的故事。
沒有你，這個部落格無法完成，謝謝尼克，引導我們並告訴我們背後有這麼多故事。
