In rural areas, you should pay attention to these points when choosing a cemetery for the elderly.
When choosing a cemetery for a deceased loved one, the most important thing is Feng Shui. The quality of the feng shui of the cemetery is not only related to the peace of the deceased, but also related to the prosperity of the family business of the descendants. Therefore, many families attach great importance to Feng Shui when buying a cemetery for their deceased loved ones. The choice of burial place based on Feng Shui has been passed down from ancestors, and it is believed that good Feng Shui can not only allow the deceased to rest in peace, but can also be a blessing to future generations. Therefore, when ancient emperors came to the throne, they would arrange for masters to choose a good place for their tombs, hoping that the emperor's legacy would be passed on forever and from generation to generation. People choose cemeteries very carefully. Looking across the country, except for Changping in Beijing, Qiongshan in Luoyang, and Pianshan in Xi'an, there are not many Fengshui treasures left. In addition to the important element of Feng Shui, you need to keep these elements in mind when choosing a burial site for your deceased loved one.
Price When choosing a cemetery, in addition to the first factor Feng Shui, the following are the prices. Of course, the price of those Feng Shui treasures with good wind and water is more expensive, such as Tianshou Cemetery in Changping, Beijing, Qing Dong Tomb Ten Thousand Buddhas Garden in Zunhua, Hebei, etc. Cemeteries that are geographically remote and have poor Feng Shui are cheaper. Before purchasing a cemetery, it is necessary to compare multiple cemeteries (feng shui, price, service, environment, transportation) and choose a cemetery with a higher price ratio as the resting place of the deceased.
Services Generally, cemetery services include free cemetery bus services, cemetery tour guide services, tombstone cleaning services, Tomb-Sweeping Day sacrificial services, park signage services, special car pick-up and drop-off services for the elderly, etc. Whether the various services in the park are complete is also an important factor for families to decide whether to choose this cemetery. In many cases, the services of the cemetery are relatively complete, and the difference lies in the details. Therefore, while providing basic services, the cemetery must also consider some details of humanistic care.
Environment The cemetery environment is mainly composed of two parts, one is the park environment, and the other is the cemetery environment. The park environment includes not only the spatial layout, but also the greening of the park. There are well-planned cemeteries in Beijing and surrounding parks, such as Tianshou Cemetery, Jiugongshan Great Wall Memorial Forest, Lingshan Pagoda Cemetery, and World Overseas Chinese Cemetery. Whether the planning of the park is reasonable and the quality of the environment are not only factors for families to choose a cemetery, but also allow the deceased to rest in peace. Therefore, many families attach great importance to the environment of the cemetery when choosing a cemetery.
Convenient transportation is the main reason families choose a cemetery. Once, I took a guest to the outskirts of Beijing to select a tomb. Halfway there, my family said it was a bit far and it would be inconvenient to sweep the tomb, so they canceled the tomb selection for that day. Before a family can choose a cemetery, they must have a cemetery within a few kilometers of the cemetery at what price. Under what circumstances a cemetery is acceptable, under what circumstances a cemetery is unacceptable, etc. These are all issues that need to be considered before choosing a tomb. Once these issues are resolved, choosing a cemetery will be very convenient.
