Waverley Cemetery, located in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, Australia, is a picturesque and historic burial ground overlooking the Tasman Sea. Established in 1877, it boasts Victorian and Edwardian monuments, making it one of the most beautiful cemeteries globally. With over 90,000 burials, including notable Australians like poet Henry Lawson, the cemetery's cliff-top setting offers stunning views and a serene atmosphere for visitors to pay their respects. Owned by Waverley Council, this self-funded cemetery continues to be a popular final resting place and a significant cultural landmark in New South Wales.
