Rabbi Azariah is buried in Alma right near the kever of his son, Rebbe Elazar. Although the location of his Kever was described in the diaries of early pilgrims to [[Kivrei Tzadikim]] as being in the close proximity of his son's, in recent times it remained unmarked. Yisroel Meir Gabbi and his organization Ohali Tzadikim in their effort to remark all the 'lost' kevarim, went ahead and created a mound of blue painted stones, marking that as the Tzion. This move caused Kadmonanu to build a Tzion a few meters away, in 2012. The person who built the Tzion claimed that to have uncovered some sort of tomb in the location, as he was creating the foundation. | Rabbi Azariah is buried in Alma right near the kever of his son, Rebbe Elazar.
