Aeternum: The Park Estate Columbary

I was driving my way along C5 road inTaguig again and this view caught my eye and made me want to see it up close. So I did.

I am glad I did because it was as beautiful up close. Exploring the place, I found out that this whole landscaped and well tended garden is part of the Aeternum, a columbary.
I had so much fun taking photos...


This is where the vaults are. Thousands can be laid in peace in each.

The center of each structure is beautifully designed and decorated with flowers.


The vaults line up all the walls of the two-storey structure.


View of the outside from within...


Chapels or Meditation rooms are uniquely designed, inside and out.

A coffee shop and lounge right in the park, would you believe!

The Aeternum is truly unique in style and in design yet retaining the serenity and tranquility of how a place for our dearly departed should be.

  3. naku, nina and ryan, ewan ko nga ba kung anung korte ng chapel na yan. no cross, no altar, no statues. sort of like a prayer room lang, i guess.

    i guess para walang favored na specific religion, you know. :-)
