Yam Suf Street, in Sanhedria

Sanhedria (Hebrew: סנהדריה) is a Haredi neighborhood in northern Jerusalem, Israel. It lies east of Golda Meir Street and adjacent to Ramat Eshkol, Shmuel HaNavi, Maalot Dafna and the Sanhedria cemetery.

The neighborhood is named after the seventy elders of the Sanhedrin, who, according to local tradition, were buried in a cave nearby.
