Description

The Kidron (Jehoshaphat) Valley is on the east side of Jerusalem and between the Mount of Olives and the Temple hill, and today it is partly urbanized. According to Jewish beliefs, the name of the valley is Jehoshaphat valley and it is accepted as the place where the dead will be gathered and the final judgment will be held on the Day of Judgment (Book of Joel 3: 2,12).
