The men's section of the Western wall.The Western wall is the only surviving part of the second temple. This is the exposed part, the part that is underground was visited in previous posting.Also called the 'wailing' wall, supposedly Jews would face it tp pray and wail for the destruction of the second temple and the loss of the temple mount to the Arabs. In the old city of Jerusalem, the old Ottoman rule of ownership remains, whoever has their monument on the land belongs to them.
Here the men are curious of what happens in the women's section. I climbed on some ledge to take pictures of the men's area and they in turn took pictures of the women's area.
I'm finally here at the famous Western wall. It was a little overwhelming!
