Over 2000 people, including Cubans and foreigners, pay tribute to the late Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro in his burial place every day, an official daily newspaper Granma reported on Monday.
The newspaper quoted Yudy Garcia, administrator of the Santa Ifigenia cemetery in the eastern Santiago de Cuba city, as saying that it has been visited by more than 150,000 people after the monolith holding the ashes of the former President was open to the public.
Garcia said people from both home and abroad come to offer their respect to the deceased leader, which is a "sample of the extraordinary validity of the ideas and example of the Commander-in-Chief."
Fidel Castro died on November 25, 2016 at the age of 90. He headed Cuba for nearly half a century before stepping down in 2006 due to health reasons.
