A day after the funeral/ Thousands of believers visit the tomb of Pope Francis

Thousands of people lined up to visit the tomb of Pope Francis at the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore a day after heads of state, royalty and hundreds of thousands of relatives attended his funeral in Rome.

Many made the cross and took photos with their phones as they passed the grave, marked simply with the name Franciscus.

Many of those mourning the late Pope were concerned about who would succeed him.

A special mass was held Sunday morning in St. Peter's Square, led by Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican's secretary of state. According to the Vatican, about 200,000 people attended.

More than 220 cardinals will meet at the Vatican on Monday morning to set the start date of the conclave to elect the next Pope.

Only cardinals under the age of 80, 135 in total, are eligible to participate in the conclave, which will begin deliberations after the end of nine days of official mourning for Francis./CNA
