Evergreen Cemetery, Memorial cemetery in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, US
Evergreen Cemetery extends across 67 acres of land, containing over 300,000 burial sites and numerous historical monuments within its grounds.
Founded in 1877, this cemetery became the first non-denominational burial ground in Los Angeles, including a designated potter's field for unclaimed individuals.
The grounds include separate sections for Armenian, Japanese, Mexican, and African American communities, reflecting the diverse population of Los Angeles through generations.
The cemetery features a 1.4-mile jogging path around its perimeter, providing recreational space for residents in an area with limited park access.
The Garden of Pines and 442nd Infantry Regiment Memorial honor Japanese American heritage, while a restored Chinese shrine marks early burial grounds.
