To the northeast, Mount Scopus( Hebrew:Har HaTsofim ) towers 820 m above the Holy City, offering a superb view of the Old City and the Judean hills. This strategic point was used by all the armies that attempted to conquer Jerusalem. The British cemetery is located here, where the soldiers who fell in 1917 are buried. Today, however, it is primarily a university center, with the campus of the Hebrew University, founded in 1925. Mount Scopus is also home to Israel's most important botanical garden, and the tomb of Nicanor of Alexandria.
