This is a Japanese cemetery. On each stone, a name of a master is carved. Generally, a woman would be buried in her husband's family's grave,not in her family's.

In the Hatogaya cemetery near Tokyo, the smell of incense, the silence and the wind across trees give a strange sensation : spirits walk around us.
