attend - be present
> attend school = go to school every day, be present in school
> attend a funeral = go to a funeral and be present for the entire ceremony
visit - go somewhere or to a person and stay for a short period of time
> visit the grandparents = go to the grandparents and stay there for a short while
> visit Rome = go to Rome and stay there for a short while
As a noun "visit" means a short presence somewhere:
pay a visit to someone's grave - go to someone's grave and stay there for a short while to show respect
daily visit - a short presence somewhere that happens daily ( for example doctor's visit at the hospital )
visiting hours - the hours in which people can go to a place and stay there to see others ( hospitals ) or to deal with business
Hope this helps :)
