This is not the pools of Beth Hesda! The drawing shows another pool, quite close to Beth Hesda, which is called "Birkat Israel" ("The pool of the Isralites"). This pool used to be close to the Temple Mount in the north, but was filled up along the years with durt and debris (now there is a parking lot on it), while the Pools of Beth Hesda are well preserved, and are shown in the complex of Santa Anna church.
