About 10 miles (16.7 kilometers) from the hustle and bustle of San Francisco, there is a quiet cemetery called Golden Hill Memorial Park. This is the final resting place of 32 unidentified Chinese immigrants who lost their lives in the early 20th century while working either in the local mines or on the railway.
