Graves are no longer just plain six-foot-deep holes in the ground; they are now decorated and made more lively.
A Kenyan family sparked online reactions after a video of their loved one’s grave surfaced on TikTok.
How unique grave was made
This unusual final resting place was beautifully crafted with pristine white tiles from the bottom up the sides, and to the top.
At the base, where the coffin is expected to lie, there was a black bed-like structure secured firmly to the ground.
The family also incorporated LED lights at the bottom corners and along the top, giving the grave an ethereal and beautiful glow.
This unique and unconventional grave site prompted many to admire the artwork, despite the fact that it was meant for someone’s final resting place.
