A plot in Jericho with the venerated 'Tree of Zacchaeus', bought in 1883–1884 by Hieromonk Ioasaf (Plekhanov) with funds from the benefactress E. I. Reznichenkova; Byzantine mosaics were found here and examined in 1891 by N. P. Kondakov's expedition. The plot was later held in the names of the heads of the Imperial Orthodox Palestine Society and in 2008 was re-registered to the Russian Federation. A museum and park complex opened on it in January 2011.
