Chung Wah Cemetery, Chinese cemetery in Folsom, California, United States

Chung Wah Cemetery is a Chinese burial ground in Folsom, California, established in 1906. Its size and shape suggest it was not planned well: graves were reportedly dug wherever there was room, with no fixed orientation or layout. It is also known as China Mission-Chung Wah Chinese Cemetery.

Chung Wah Cemetery dates from 1906, when Folsom's Chinese community numbered about 3,000, drawn by gold mining in the area.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.
