Exact coordinates

1.Navigate to the old Jewish cemetery, not one of the other cemeteries in the town.
2.The ohel of the Yismach Moshe is on the cemetery grounds; follow the current signs and access instructions after arriving.
3.Confirm gate access before traveling, especially for a group or a yahrzeit visit.
4.The ohel holds three kevarim, not one: the Yismach Moshe, his rebbetzin, and Reb Alexander of Komárom. It is a building rather than a stone, so you daven inside it.
