Confirm gardien or building rules rules before any backyard burial or garden marker plan. Pair that with transport reality: Montpellier is a longer regional hop from Marseille (~125 km).

Alternate hub to compare: Toulouse (~196 km) — the largest in-state city is not always the nearest useful chamber.
