Ville de Québec
Saint-Matthew Cemetery is a true haven of peace in the heart of Saint-Jean-Baptiste. It has been restored by the City of Québec, respecting the peaceful spirit of the place. It is estimated that 6,000 to 10,000 people were buried there between 1772 and 1860. Like many ancient cemeteries, the majority of the deceased were buried anonymously.

In Jhang, a small town in the Punjab, one night a man dreamt that his child was climbing high up in a tree, so high that soon he seemed to disappear into the blue sky. The name of the child was Abdus Salam, that means “Servant of Peace”, who was going to win in 1979 the Nobel Prize in Physics for his groundbreaking advances in our understanding of the laws of Nature. But not only was he a great scientist, he was also a visionary and humanitarian. With a burning concern, fired by his unhappiness at having to leave his own country for pursuing higher research, Abdus Salam always tried to find ways to make science the common and shared heritage of all mankind.
