I’d never heard of Oakland Cemetery before until someone described it when we made plans to get coffee nearby. It’s one of Atlanta’s oldest graveyards, located next to Grant park and filled with gorgeous monuments. It’s by far one of the more interesting places in Atlanta that I’ve had an opportunity to explore. The markers date back to the 1800’s with famous people such as Bobby Jones and Margaret Mitchell and I’m sure many others. If you’re ever in the area grab a coffee from Octane and talk a little walk through the grounds, I can’t imagine how beautiful it probably is in the springtime.
Such a pretty cemetery!! It’s gorgeous!!
