Pictures now posted

Words cannot convey what it was like to experience a royal cremation. Hopefully, these pictures will do a better job. They begin with the preparations for the 54 honorary cremations, show the construction of the tower, then proceed with the procession. At the cremation grounds, you'll see the transfer of the body from the tower to the bull. Then the bull is set on first and last the tower goes up in flames.
