This cemetery is from the Kentucky Horse Park and is where some famous horses are buried. I've only heard of a couple of them, but maybe ya'll have heard of more of them.

But, first, just to backtrack a little, if you're interested in the other parts of the horse farm, here are the links to those photo essays:

The Kentucky Horse Farm
The Draft Barn
The Breeds Barn

Here's an interesting fact. The reason the only parts of the horse that were buried were the head, the heart, and the hooves was because the head was for the knowledge, the heart was for the courage, and the hooves were for the speed. :)
