At first thought, visiting a cemetery may not exactly be what you want to do on a holiday. However, the Modernist Cemetery is not just a cemetery. It's a place of cultural history as well, as it preserves traces of the indiano culture from the late 19th century and the early 20th century. It is a gorgeous place, with graves looking like houses, with ornaments, sculptures and great detail. This is where members of the wealthy indiano families, people who had become rich in the New World, were buried. When they arrived back home, they built elaborate houses and mausoleums where they wanted to be buried. This historic site is open from 8am until 6pm in winter, and from 8am until 8pm in summer.
