Budapest cemeteries expect to have hundreds of thousands of visitors on All Hallows’ Day, similarly to earlier years, the Budapest Funeral Institute said on Thursday.

The Rákoskeresztúr Cemetery in eastern Pest has had nearly 120,000 visitors by 4.30 pm, and the Farkasréti Cemetery in Buda some 70,000, the institute said.

The city’s cemeteries are open longer, from 7am to 8pm, during the holiday weekend, and will return to the normal opening hours of 7.30am to 5pm on Monday, the statement said.
