Tata tomb

On a recent visit to Père Lachaise, Paris, I took a few photographs of the tomb of the "Famille R. D. Tata.”
Should it interest your readers, the "Famille R. D. Tata” grave is located in Plot No 1/77 to 1/88. The nearest porte (entrance) is Gambetta which can be accessed either by metro and/or auto­buses nos. 26, 60, 61, 69 or 102. The grounds are normally peaceful and quiet with facilities for meditation/prayers irrespective of the faith adhered to. The family tomb bears inscriptions in Hindi/Gujarati.
