A beautiful, lyrical place in the great tradition of Victorian garden cemeteries. A sweet and mysterious place to wander.

Beautiful 300 acre cemetery. Walking around you can tell that a lot of care goes into this place daily. The trees are beautiful and there is an area along the water that is peaceful.

This has to be one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the entire USA. I dont live here, and only visited the cemetery to admire its trees and gardens, and thought about changing my plans for my final resting place!

From the wonderful experience with Linda Xavier in learning the history of the cemetery to the final day of the funeral, my experience with Swan Point was wonderful. Linda was patient and met with the family time and time again to ensure we were happy with our choice in a plot. She also gave us a lot of information which made it easier to decide on what to do for a service and funeral. The cemetery itself is beautiful and peaceful. I highly recommend meeting with her if interested in Swan Point. The entire staff there is professional, kind and compassionate.

One of the most incredible Cemeteries in the world can be found just over the Pawtucket city limits in Providence Rhode Island off of the very Elegant and stately Blackstone Boulevard where amazing monuments can be seen with some of the most naturally opulent surroundings in every season You will find every kind of time enduring sculpture from every era. Something from the Victorian, throughout the Progressive into the Art Deco and beyond.. Extremely wealthy families have a lot of prime real estate set aside even in the After life as a testament to the fortunes their loved ones amassed in life.

Such a peaceful place! I enjoyed walking there, if you want to run dont put your earbuds on, because cars are passing by regularly. Swan point which is near the river is such a quiet place and has a nice view.

A truly stunning garden cemetery. You could spend all day here and still not see the whole thing. No cameras allowed, however!

So beautiful and well maintained. I visit my grandmother there, she was a classy lady and deserved to be laid to rest in a beautiful location!

The most beautiful cemetery Ive ever been in. I enjoy reading the gravestones from the 18th century where they list how the people of that time passed on. Such a beautiful and tranquil cemetery.

More of a park with headstones than cemetery. A great look back at the grandeur of death in the 19th century.Be aware that taking photos of monuments is officially discouraged, so use discretion.
