The underground part of the western wall

 The western wall or the wailing wall is the only part of the second temple that still exists. The part that is exposed is the part that is seen on pictures where Jewish people faces it to pray and to wail. There is a large part of it that is buried and underground. It is possible to visit and tour it which was what I did. Here some of the faithful Jewish women prefer to pray here rather than at the exposed part.


These are the same stones that has been walked on for thousands of years.
