Barlowganj Cemetery
Barlowganj Cemetery, tucked away near St. George's College in the quiet hamlet of Barlowganj near Mussoorie, Uttarakhand, is one of the oldest colonial burial grounds in the Garhwal Himalayas. Established in the 1830s, this tranquil yet atmospheric cemetery contains historic graves of early British pioneers, soldiers, schoolmasters, and infants who succumbed to mountain fevers. Local lore tells of phantom mourning figures, glowing orbs, and disembodied footsteps echoing through the deodar groves.
