# Gethsemane # ## Facts: ## Gethsemane was a garden of olive trees east of Jerusalem beyond the Kidron valley and near the Mount of Olives. * The garden of Gethsemane was a place where Jesus and his followers would go to be alone and rest, away from the crowds. * It was in Gethsemane that Jesus prayed in deep sorrow, before being arrested there by Jewish leaders.
