Graveyard tourism?! What is the world coming to? The dead (gasp!) as a tourist attraction? Nah! It is no so bad. The genteel people of Kolkata would never do that! Authorities of India’s former colonial capital are promoting the graveyards…

:P i must admit, we’re surely a weird lot. Graveyard tourism sounds reallly weird, like you’re on the hunt for spooooky ghosts and stuff. Ew, definitely not for me. good intentions, defintely but stilllll the spooooooky factor is a lot more than anything else :P

This sounds interesting.

Tracing roots is a great human quest to ascribe meaning to life. Graveyard Tourism seems a great idea but how many people will stand up to the spooks is questionable.

With so much crowds elsewhere, graveyards can be a tourist attraction on their own for those seeking seclusion.

Wonder how much a trip would cost?
