Exact coordinates

1.Type Novi Velidnyky into your map, not Velednyky and not Vilednik. The village sits in Korosten Raion, Zhytomyr Oblast, and the older forms of the name will not bring you there.
2.The ohel stands and the place is a live pilgrimage site; the Rebbe's promise to those who daven at his kever is why people keep coming.
3.Do not confuse him with Rabbi Yisroel Dov Ber Odesser, the Breslover Saba (d. 1994), who is buried in Yerushalayim and dominates searches on this name.
4.Confirm the exact grave with someone local when you arrive.
5.SURVEYED COORDINATES. The map point on this listing is the cemetery itself, measured on the ground by the ESJF survey — not a town centre. Where a kever is inside an ohel it will still need finding once you are through the gate, but the gate is now something you can navigate to.
