BRUCE LEE'S GRAVE
People come to Seattle from all over the world to see the grave of Bruce Lee. There is a constant trickle of people making their way to Lakeview Cemetery in the Capitol Hill District every season of the year. In fact while I was sitting on the stone bench there taking this picture a car pulled up and a guy stuck his head out the window and asked me where Bruce Lee's grave was. I told him it was right here. The guy and another person got out of the car and reverently walked over in awe before the grave site of this world renowned actor and martial arts instructor. I was still taking pictures, and when I got one of Bruce Lee's son Brandon and the stone bench I left these so these two guys could be alone with their idol.
The grave site is located at 1554 15th Avenue East next to what used to be called Volunteer Park, and where the Asian Museum is now located. The first time I ever came to see this grave was quite a few years ago. I walked all over the graveyard for days trying to find it. The first few times I went I had no luck. Then one day I saw some people gathering around a grave. I went there and found that it was Bruce Lee's grave. Since then I've taken a lot of people there, and directed others to it who were interested in seeing it. If you are ever in Seattle it may be well worth your time to come and see this landmark if you are a fan of Bruce Lee, or his son Brandon. Here is a website if you would like to read more about this famous actor and legend. www.answers.com/topic/bruce-lee
