Kever Rabbi Yossi of Peki'in

Kever Rabbi Yossi of Peki'in is located in the Baal Shem Tov Forest underneath Ein Zetim in Northern Israel. Rabbi Chaim Vital in the name of the Arizal describes the location in a natural circular formation of rocks. This was the location of the revelation where Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai revealed of Safra D'Tzniusa to his students. After his 2nd passing, Rabbi Yossi was buried in this location.

In the village of Peki'in itself there is a kever attributed to a Rebbe Yosi which people naturally and mistakenly assumed to be Rebbe Yossi of Pekien, however as revealed by the Arizal this can not be the case and it is a different Tana Rebbe Yossi buried in Peki'in.
