    This garden has the tomb of Raban Gamliel, which was influential for jews after the second temple was lost, but if you're religious or an history enthusiast, you can skip this. The garden is not very well kept, it's kind of dark in the evening, and the playground is quite old

    A park, called "Sanhedrin Garden". This was the location of the cemetery of ancient Yavne, which was in use since the Bronze age. A sarcophagus (burial coffin) is located on the adjacent road . An impressive mausoleum  (large tomb structure) stands on the west side of Tel Yavne. It is dated to the Mamluke period (end of the 13th Century). According to the Jewish Sephardic tradition, this is the tomb of Rabban Gamaliel II. This Jewish leader was the first head of the Great Sanhedrin in the years 80-90 AD. The Great Sanhedrin was the supreme judicial body during and after the Second Temple period.  Today, the tomb serves as a Jewish Holy place of worship. According to the Muslim tradition, this structure was actually the tomb of Abu Hureireh (Hurayrah)- a famous companion of the Islamic prophet Muhammad (born in 603 A.D.). While he is known to be buried in the cemetery of Medina (681 A.D.), the tradition holds that this is Abu Hureirah's tomb.

    Nice but I would travel all the way to Yavne to see it. It's basically a synagogue which is closed most of the time.
