Conservation Approach

Damaged structures and tombs were documented, reconstructed, and revived, with landscape elements rehabilitated to reconnect the site with its natural setting.

Final Expression

The project re-established the graveyard as a place of memory and culture, blending authenticity with sensitive restoration to preserve its identity for future generations.
