9:30Now PlayingPope Francis has been buried in Rome after a funeral ceremony and procession attended by hundreds of thousands of people and many heads of state.
The first South American pontiff passed away on Monday aged 88, marking the end of a 12-year pontificate.
Authorities said 140,000 had lined the streets, clapping and waving as the hearse – a repurposed white popemobile – crossed the Tiber river and drove past some of Rome's most recognisable sights.
Pope Francis was laid to rest at the Santa Maria Maggiore and buried in the righthand side of the church, near a beloved icon of the Virgin Mary.
