In fact, they equate it to visiting places of worshiplike churches: “Before, churches were seen only as places of worship and now they are seen as historical-artistic heritage,” says a guide.

Those who visit them highlight their architectural wealth, which makes them a mandatory stop. “Every weekend we try to take a guided tour,” says one woman.

And, among its silent streets, in addition to friends and family, celebrities also rest, making them an opportunity to get to know, remember and expand knowledge about them and their history. Like that of San Fernando, in Cádiz, where the remains of Camarón de la Isla restthat 31 years after his death, visits to his grave continue to be constant year after year.

The same thing happens with him mausoleum of Lola Flores, which is one of the most visited in the Almudena cemetery, in Madrid. A cemetery where more than five million people also rest. Because I remember her, like her, it’s all art.
