Though this must also be the most expensive cemetery in the world, they could also be the luckiest souls when you are located on the holiest land while also overlooking the Old City of Jerusalem.Full review by ECLadines

FYI There is a kiosk now & they have most of the graves mapped out I got a text with the exact location of one of the graves but neither the taxi driver or two different security peps were able to find them Luckily a rabbi went by (from Boston) & he knew exactly where to look The trick? They are buried by the country were they came from!! Now they have gates with inscriptions Obviously I took photos of the gates as well the blue sign with the name of the street The taxi driver was the hero since he wouldn’t give up & since he spoke Hebrew he could ask all the questions for me I must say I was advised not to go without security because it is in Arab area that is being build up the security is free ( a donation appreciated) but the first available appointment was midnight I didn’t want to wait The important thing for me was I was able to find them & place a stone on each one And that was on my first day in Jerusalem following the free old city tour Mission accomplished Thank you for your suggestions
