    Valley of the Temples Memorial Park, Oahu, Hawaii

    Fast facts:

    - Wild peacocks and koi carp
    - Zen garden
    - Award winning Byodo-In Temple, a replica of a 900-year-old Buddhist temple in Japan that was built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first Japanese immigrants to Hawaii

    I was prompted to share this magnificent cemetery after it was brought to my attention by an internet buddy (thanks Shyenne!) I'm thinking of making this a regular feature, bringing you a gorgeous cemetery with some fun facts every week or so. What do you think? Feel free to tell me about a location you've been amazed by and maybe I'll share it!
