The Urban Explorer, David Vega-Barachowitz took a trip this past week to the Calvary Cemetery. The first burial at the cemetery occurred in 1848 and there are over 3 million people buried at the site to date. In addition to its distinctive size and age, the cemetery also has a number of impressive mausoleums and grave markers and a pretty striking view of the Manhattan skyline.
