Description

Cementerio General Until recently, this has been one of Santiago's hidden treasures, but it is now growing in popularity. This is no ordinary burial ground, more a mini-metropolis of extraordinary tombs. Some are extravagant, some are beautiful, almost all are striking in one way or another. It's also of great historical interest – several leading politicians are buried here, including Salvador Allende, and there is a memorial to all those who disappeared during the Pinochet years. As a necropolis, it rivals those in Buenos Aires.
