If users can't complain something is cleaning the place. There are sectors that are rather neglected. otherwise a Museum is very interesting and beautiful cemetery, his sculptures and mausolea of marble make it different from all that there is in Lima, the Pantheon of Heroes deserves a separate mention for being there buried the remains of Bolognesi, Grau and many others characters in the history of the Peru of which we have only known for books are buried all over the cemetery. In the children's section you can find the tomb of the boy Ricky who is said it is very miraculous, so much so it has its own Fellowship which puts offerings and even celebrates you his birthday with children's show and party. It is also very interesting for the lovers of the paranormal activities because it is said that you there enough of that, especially in the Pantheon of the suicide. There are night tours organized by the beneficence of Lima to have a different experience in the cemetery, this activity takes place one or two times a month if I am not mistaken, for dates you enter to the website of the beneficence of Lima or search in google information on about the event.View original
