What is a cemetery or section of a cemetery characterized by flush-to-the-ground markers called?

The term that describes a cemetery or a section of a cemetery characterized by flush-to-the-ground markers is a memorial park. Memorial parks are specifically designed to provide a serene landscape, often featuring neatly manicured lawns and gardens, where burial markers are level with the ground. This design promotes a peaceful and uniform appearance, encouraging a natural aesthetic that blends with the surrounding environment. The flush markers allow for easier maintenance and can also create a more spacious feel in comparison to traditional raised headstones.

In contrast, other types of cemeteries, such as garden cemeteries or conventional cemeteries, may include more traditional upright tombstones or elaborate monuments that stand above ground. Flat marker areas might refer to a specific section within a broader cemetery that utilizes flush markers, but the general term for such a design across an entire cemetery is memorial park.
