The Milan Memorial Cemetery is a very large cemetery designed by architect Carlo and is known for its artistic tombs and numerous fine sculptures. The cemetery was opened to the public in 1866, and the architectural carvings in the cemetery bring together the achievements of many Italian contemporary and classical sculptors. The main entrance of the cemetery is a hall of fame, a neo-medieval style marble building, where many Italian celebrities are buried, such as the famous Italian composer Verdi. If you want to visit here, be sure to pay attention to the opening hours.

If you are bored with visiting all churches, this is a great choice. At the entrance you can see a map guiding you to the "bright spot", but the other statues are equally interesting. It feels scary sometimes and I can imagine you visiting alone. I suggest you choose those that interest you. We didn't miss the 13th Last Supper, come by train and get off at the memorial.
Milan's huge cemetery is a collection of Roman Empire and Gothic architecture, and its amazing sculptures make it look like a great museum. It can be traced back to 1866 to the present. Many French celebrities still have non-Catholic and Jewish parts, which are very close to Chinatown.
Don't look, don't know, don't forget. I went to see them in September 2016, and the unique sculptures are very beautiful. I watched it alone for more than four hours and took more than 350 pictures with tablets. Send it to primary school students in the evening. Some people say that the Rachez Cemetery in Paris is OK. This time I went to Paris for a special visit. I was disappointed. The sculpture is less than 10 [%] of the Milan Memorial Cemetery, hoping to visit relatives in Milan sometime. If necessary, ask the Chinese to translate the instructions in front of the tombstone.
Milan Memorial Cemetery is a cemetery where few people seem to clean. It feels like a lot of sundry things are there. What's more, the sculptures here are so many that you can see some from a short distance.
