A Grave With Beer Bottles In Yambol

This weekend was a visit to the Yambol cemetery to pay our respects by lighting candles and tidying up relative's graves. One grave I saw was well tended but I was more intrigued by the beer bottles used as vases fot the fresh flowers laid today.

A Typical Yambol Family Grave

A Typical Yambol Family GraveThis is a typical grave that you would find in Yambol's cemetery. The picture of the husband and wife buried there with the details craved out. A little windowed box space at the base of the headstone to keep memorabilia and an old storage can where lighted candles are placed to protect against the wind. We quite often attend to my partner’s family graves tidying up, lighting candles and paying our respect, just like most other families do from Yambol and Bulgaria as a whole.
