AdvertisementDeath isn't always tragic, at least not in this Romanian cemetery, where the dead beguile visitors with tales of their lives. The Merry Cemetery in the north-western village of Sapanta is a collection of more than 1,000 elaborate wooden Orthodox crosses etched with colourful epitaphs and childlike drawings. My parents were talking about the Merry Cemetery and I've always wanted to come and see it but wasn't able to until now. ' One of the drawings features a young man and a subway carriage - the man was run over by a train. His grave says he was the creator of the Merry Cemetery.
