Yayway Cemetery (
History
In the mid-1990s, the
ethnic Chinese cemetery was demolished and remains were relocated to Yayway Cemetery.[5] The interred remains from these cemetery relocation projects were reburied at Yayway Cemetery, located on the outskirts of the city.[6]
Today, Yayway Cemetery is the busiest in the Yangon area, handling the highest volume of cremations (70 to 100 per day).[7]
