-The Nebi Samuel Park is where Shmuel Hanavi is buried. Nebi means a prophet in Arabic. In the area, there are lots of archeological remains from the Chashmonaim and Crusader times.

-There are incredible views from on top of the building.

History

-Nearby, there is a spring that is used as a Mikvah. People call it Chana's spring, after the mother of Shmuel, however, it's not confirmed if she actually used that spring.

-There is an argument about whether this mountain is the ancient city of Mitzpa, which is where Shmuel Hanavi judged the Jews.
