This is Yanaka Cemetery in Tokyo, home to over 7,000 grave sites.
The cemetery was established in 1872, but the grounds were once part of the much older Buddhist Tennō-ji Temple.
A peaceful bastion for both the dead and the living, Yanaka is an isolated corner hidden beneath the ceaseless clamor of the surrounding city.
