Why Top:
For a population of 1500 people, there are more than one and a half million burials, or a thousand dead people for every living person.
Description:
The story began in 1849, when the gold rush was raging in America and hundreds of thousands of enthusiasts headed to nearby San Francisco. Overpopulation provoked an epidemic catastrophe, and by the end of the 19th century, more than 25 cemeteries appeared in Colma.
