The 'Tomb of the Kings' is the final resting place for the family of Queen Helene of Adiabene dating back to the first century AD. Located in Jerusalem, half a mile north of the Old City walls, the tomb got its name from early explorers who believed that this magnificent tomb belonged to members of the dynasty of King David. The tomb regarded as the largest and one of the most beautiful tombs in Jerusalem.
