Tomb of Daniel at Samarkand

Five domes adorn the long structure that holds an 18m long sarcophagus, reputedly holding the remains of the Old Testament prophet Daniel, revered by Muslims, Jews and Christians alike – although only Christians regard him as a prophet.

This is not the only place that claims to be the final resting place of Daniel. The most widely accepted of these places is in Susa, Iran. Even beyond Uzbekistan and Iran, a couple of cities in Iraq also lay claim to be the final resting place of Daniel – which, since the Bible places Daniel in Babylon, in modern day Iraq, at the time of his death, is not too far-fetched either.

Samarkand seems to be the odd one among the places, that argue to be the real final resting place of Daniel. As legend has it, Timur (Tamerlane) tried to conquer modern day Syria, but successively failed – apparently because the body of Daniel was preventing his success. When he finally succeeded, it is claimed, that he ordered the body to be buried at Samarkand for good luck.

Immediately after he was buried, a natural spring started to sprout, which, naturally, is regarded to have healing powers. But local lore goes even further, stating that the body of Daniel was continually growing at a rate of around 5cm a year. If this was true, the body of Daniel would by now have a length of more than 125m, rather than “just“ 18m, since he died approximately 2500 years ago. However the truth behind the corpse’s growth is that Timur was paranoid about grave robbers and extended the grave to make it harder for potential robbers to pillage the bones.

Bahá’í Gardens Haifa

Located in the heart of Haifa, the Bahá’í Gardens is made up of a staircase with nineteen terraces leading all the way up the northern slope of Mount Carmel. Standing on the central terrace is the golden-domed Shrine of the Báb, the resting place of the Prophet-Herald of the Bahá’í Faith, looking across the bay towards Akko. The one thing these nineteen terraces have in common are the graveled paths, hedges and flower beds groomed and nurtured by dedicated gardeners.

The gardens frame panoramic views of the city, the Galilee Hills and the Mediterranean Sea. The Bahá’í Gardens is one of the most popular sites in the Middle East. It has an indivisual design, combining geometrical shapes and beautiful detailing with a devotion to preserving the natural and historic scenery.

Tomb of Rabbi Akiva

Akiva ben Yosef, also known as Rabbi Akiva, was a leading Jewish scholar and sage, a tanna of the latter part of the first century and the beginning of the second century. Rabbi Akiva was a leading contributor to the Mishnah and to Midrash halakha. He is referred to in the Talmud as Rosh la-Hakhamim, “Chief of the Sages”.

As a leading Mishnaic sage (and teacher of Rabbi Meir Ba’al HaNess), Rabbi Akiva played a major role in establishing rabbinic (ie post–Second Temple) Judaism. He was tortured to death by the Romans because of his support for the Bar Kochba Revolt, his enthusiasm for resistance to the Romans was such that he declared Bar Kochba to be the Messiah.

A visit to Rabbi Akiva’s tomb in Tiberias is a chance to consider this great sage’s life and its significance for the Jewish people and all humanity.

Rabbi Akiva started out as a poor, illiterate shepherd. His wife Rachel married him against the wishes of her affluent father, who balked at Akiva’s lack of education.

Rachel encouraged and supported her husband’s utter devotion to Torah study and lived in abject poverty for twenty-four years. Akiva’s formal study of Torah did not begin until age forty, but his diligence, combined with his keen intellect, enabled him to become one of the foremost sages of the Mishnah with 24,000 students.

He supported the 2nd-century rebel leader Bar Kochba. He was arrested by the Romans and subjected to a horrifyingly painful death; he lovingly recited the words of the “Shema” at the end.

According to tradition, his body was miraculously transported to Tiberias for burial alongside his students who had died in a plague.

His tomb, on the mountainside behind the Kiryat Moshe neighborhood, overlooks Tiberias and the Kinneret, and has been a pilgrimage site since the early Middle Ages.

It became a special tradition to pray for rain at Rabbi Akiva’s tomb during drought years.

Among those who visited Rabbi Akiva’s Tomb was the famed kabbalist Rabbi Yitzchak Luria, the Ari Zal, making the site even more sacred.

Tomb of Rabbi Meir

About two thousand years ago, the divine Tanna Rabbi Meir Baal Hanes revealed the way to work salvation above the way of nature. He ordered the housekeeper of the prisoners to release his sister-in-law and if the guardians of the kingdom caught him he would say “Alka Damair Anani” and be saved, thus assuring him of the miracle of his rescue.

In all generations, the people of Israel have relied on the power of the righteous, holy and sublime Tanna – and have won many wonderful salvations in all areas: livelihood, mating, children, health, success and more.

The site of the holy Tanna Rabbi Meir Baal Hanes is in the city of Tiberias and has been an inexhaustible spring of blessings and salvation for every one of the children of Israel who came to beg God to win salvation and mercy, thanks to the Tanna in this holy place.

Chief Rabbi Lipót Löw’s Grave

Lipót Löw (1811–1875), originating from Moravia, was a famous Chief Rabbi of Szeged where he served in his position from 1850 until his death. He was the first representative of the Hungarian moderate reformed (Neolog) movement. He highly contributed to the creation of Jewish Emancipation Law of 1867 and is one of the most influential Neolog rabbis in Hungary. Grave location: Parcel 10, line 1, grave 3
