If you want to see the Cathedral and you have some free time to spare, take a stroll up the hill and look at the gravestones. Most have a date of death and tell you at what age people died but not a birth date, which surprised me and I haven't seen before. Do go on a warm and blue-skyed... More

A easy walk to a really different graveyard filled with monuments and grave sites. The move to the site is a strange journey that almost makes you feel your part of funeral procession.

We had a great walk around the Necropolis. It's actually a good place for a jog or run. Great views of the city from up there.

A bit spooky but a great place to get a good view of the cathedral and the city. There are some really old and large tombs in this cemetery.

Lovely place and lovely monuments, tombs and head stones of the dead. We spent quite a lot of time wandering about have a look around. Must of been wealthy people to afford to be laid to rest in the area. Great views for the cathedral too

Absolutely breathtaking place and no wonder it has been the setting for so many movies,wouldn't like to visit after dark. Hard to imagine the wealth of the people who have such grand monuments,another era.

Really worth 2 or 3 hours of your time. It looks like there is some significant restoration work taking place so some of the pathways are closed off.
