Resting place of Shoghi Effendi
___________________
Shoghi Effendi is buried in the New Southgate Cemetery (previously the Great Northern Cemetery) in north London. His grave is built of white Carrara marble. It consists of a marble column, crowned by a corinthian capital surmounted by a globe, with the map of Africa facing forward. On this globe is a large gilded bronze eagle, a reproduction of a Japanese sculpture he much admired. Many Bahá'ís visit the resting place of Shoghi Effendi to say prayers.
[BD 194-5]
