"Living with the Dead: Manila's North Cemetery"

The cemetery is large. At 54 hectares or 133 acres, its area easily consumes eight football fields. Within most of this area single tombs are cramped in such close proximity that residents and visitors have to clamber over the graves to get around. Due to the lack of space, those dead that cannot afford a small plot or a mausoleum "rent" tombs for five years, after which the bones are moved to crypt or buried to make room for a new body.
