Why was every school formerly a cemetery?
In fact, many schools are actual cemeteries or crematoriums. Like many of the types of high-rise buildings we saw years ago, it's actually a vast expanse of wild grassland. At that time, there was no way to handle the cremation of the deceased. Everyone digs a deep hole in the wasteland. Bury it on site. After a long period of accumulation, it may become a mass grave. In addition, China's livable area itself is very small. If it is not built here, there will be no more suitable place.
Some people say that their school used to be a crematorium, mainly because with the continuous development of society, many hospitals of various sizes have been built in the city. Therefore, cremation gradually became popular, so there is a crematorium in some places not far from the hospital. However, as more and more people lived nearby and the commercial street was relatively close, they left the place. Some affordable, well-located private schools buy and build schools.
Secondly, the old man said it was due to Feng Shui. In ancient Feng Shui studies, the dead were buried in cemeteries, so the Yin energy was very strong. School construction is a major project, and a large amount of infrastructure construction is indispensable for students to achieve all-round development morally, intellectually, and aesthetically. From this perspective, a large amount of capital is required from the purchase of land to construction and final completion. Therefore, in order to save money, many schools choose cheap and large cemeteries.
In addition, in terms of market price. Because this place is not suitable for ordinary businessmen to develop real estate, people will not buy houses in this place because of taboos. Therefore, it has an advantage in terms of land prices, which reduces the cost of establishing schools.
