"Fascinating place to visit, make sure to read the stories that accompany the graves. You can also see grave site markings along the pavement outside where the road was built over the cemetery."
"A beautiful, peaceful resting place for the souls buried here. The cemetery is very tiny and easy to miss. Interesting stories on many of the headstones and graves. The history of the cemetery is heartbreaking, but important to learn to understand the history of San diego."
"Very old and historic small cemetery came to visit those who passed on. So sad to see all the indigenous ancestors who are left unmarked. Had to show some respect for those resting here. Really interesting to see the plaques and markers on the side walk especially of the unmarked Graves. Nothing spooky or eerie here just really interesting step back into time."
"This is a small but historical cementery. It is just a few blocks away from the cities most haunted building! When walking by the graves, you definitely feel a sense of respect. A lot of the grave sites have white fencing around them while others have rocks outlining their location. I remember as a child, I visited this cementery a lot for school field trips. We were told that a lot of people have had spiritual activities/ghost sightings at this cementery. I've never experienced such thing though. I always feel at peace and in aw when walking through this place. Highly recommend stopping by!"
