Cementerios is an underground metro station on the Line 2 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. The word cementerios means "cemeteries" in English and the station is so named due to its surroundings of Recoleta Avenue that forms the borders of two cemeteries, the Santiago General Burial to the west and the smaller Catholic Cemetery to the east.
