2. The Tomb of Simeon the Just or Kever Shimon HaTzadik.

Simeon the Just was a 4th Century BC Jewish High Priest revered for his piety. The earliest documented evidence for this tomb is from 13th century AD. I am not sure if the tomb is easily accessible for tourists.

Location: The tomb is positioned in Abu Bakir-E-Sadik road between Shimon Ha Tzadik and Sheikh Jarrah neighborhoods,  East Jerusalem.

Date: September 12, 2008.
