You don’t have to travel to Petra to see impressive rock-hewn structures. Right here in the Kidron Valley, at the foot of the Mount of Olives, you can find massive stone formations that have been extraordinarily well-preserved, even by international standards.
Absalom’s Pillar, remarkable in both its size and unique shape, sits beside the Tomb of Bnei Hezir and the Tomb of Zechariah.
The Kidron Valley is a beautiful and picturesque place, full of lush vegetation which changes colors according to the season. It is possible to walk from the valley to a variety of City of David sites, making it the perfect location for a morning picnic before visiting the City of David.
