    Plečnik’s Žale cemetery complex – the Garden of All Saints was designed as a city of the dead which we enter through the monumental propylaea. Contrary to the then new approaches to the construction of cemeteries, Plečnik decided to build funeral chapels in the spirit of local tradition and different historical architectural types. He found inspiration in prehistoric tumuli, ancient temples, Byzantine and Far Eastern architecture and other historical models with thoughtful use of green elements.
