Masonic Cemetery (technically, I think it's Masonic Cemetery #1 & #2) is located on City Park Avenue in New Orleans near a number of other historic cemeteries. It's on a triangular plot bisected by Conti Street (perhaps the two halves are considered #1 & #2?). It was founded in 1865 by the Grand Lodge of the State of Louisiana Free and Accepted Masons.
This one's a little out of the way, in a more rural location, but is worth the effort to seek it out, as it's up there with some of my favorite churchyards I've visited, with lots of amazing historic monuments set over a large area in a beautiful setting.

April 12, 2015 - For over 300 years this was the only burial ground permitted for Jews in Prague. The last burial occurred in 1787. It is thought that over 100,000 people were laid to rest here, due to lack of space bodies were buried one on top of the other and records indicate there are up to twelve layers.

Highgate Cemetery East was the first London Cemetery I visited after my interest in cemeteries started, and it ranks as one of my all time favourites. As you enter you enter your greeted by a huge array of impressive monuments, and there are more than a few famous names as you look around, including the monument to Karl Marx.
As you head deeper in it becomes incredibly rural, you could almost forget your in London. In the woods though is an unbelievably high number of headphones densely packed in the woods. There’s lots to see on the main paths, but the real joy comes when you wander down some of the less used paths and find one of many hidden sights to find. A must visit for any UK cemetery enthusiast.
