Geocache Description:


Hidden in Ben Shemen Forest is a Thai Pagoda built to commemorate the friendship between Israel and Thailand.

Unfortunately, seems like the pagoda itself is closed to the public and fenced. It is possible to make an arrangememt for a guided visit - see attached info pic.

The next best thing is to cache!

This is an easy multi, final location is not far away.

Read the plaque near the entrance, and gather the clues:

A = Israel's A jubilee (two digits)

B=Total number of letters in the four words (the king's title) under the line "his majesty" (two digits)

C= Number of the letters in the king's name

D=The day in december the pagoda was dedicated

cache location is at

N 31 56.(A+B+7)C

E 34 57.(A-B+D)5
