It's extremely small, you might not even notice it's a cemetery at first, and there's no church in the immediate area that I know of. It is right behind the basketball court, and there's a decent sized stone wall surrounding it, probably about 6-8 feet tall. There's a small path that leads from Calle Luis Vicente de Velasco alongside the cemetary, past its entrance, and then comes out to Avenue Herrera Oria, as well as a smaller beaten path on the other side of the cemetary that can be seen from satillite view on google earth as of March 2021. When you look at it from the satellite view you will see a small thatch of trees, that is the cemetary. It actually serves as a little bit of a mini nature preserve within the big city, there's several large trees that get to grow unimpeded, and it seems like a lot of birds make their homes in the trees. When you walk by the entrance, there is a locked gate, and a sign with the name of the cemetary and I believe when it was created. However the grass is fairly well trimmed, so I think someone must come by and mow the lawn every once in a while, but I've never noticed who or what church/organization they belong to. I don't think there could be much more than 30 graves or burials in it.
