Did You Know These Facts About Western Wall (Kotel) ?

The wall is also important to Christians and Muslims as part of the shared heritage of Jerusalem, a city sacred to all three Abrahamic religions.

The Western Wall, also known as the Kotel, is one of the holiest sites in Judaism, located in the Old City of Jerusalem.

The area in front of the wall serves as an open-air synagogue, where daily prayers, including Bar Mitzvah ceremonies, are held year-round.

It is the last remaining part of the Second Temple, which was destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE, making it a place of deep spiritual significance for Jewish people.

Visitors from all over the world come to the Western Wall to pray and place written prayers on small pieces of paper into the cracks between the stones.
