The Vatican released photos of Pope Francis's tomb in Rome's Basilica of St. Mary Major, following his burial on Saturday. The tomb opened to the public on Sunday, attracting over 13,000 visitors. Cardinals are expected to pay their respects later in the day. Francis, who died last Monday at 88, is the first pope buried outside the Vatican in over a century and the first in St. Mary Major in over 300 years.
