קבר יאסון
אלפסי 13

בתוך מערת הקבורה שהתגלתה ממש במקרה, נמצאו על הקירות ציורים של ספינות ומלחים ויש הטוענים כי יאסון היה שודד הים המפחיד ביותר באזור חופי הים התיכון. האגדה מספרת שליאסון היה אוצר גדול מאוד וכדי שלא ימצאו אותו לעולם הוא החליט שיקברו אותו במקום הכי רחוק מהים - ירושלים.

Jason’s Tomb
Alfasi 13

Inside the burial cave that was discovered quite by chance, paintings of ships and sailors were found on the walls and some claim that Jason was the scariest pirate in the Mediterranean coast. Legend has it that Liasson was a very great treasure and so that they would never find him, he decided to be buried in the farthest place from the sea - Jerusalem.
