The Western Wall, or “Wailing Wall”, is the most religious site in the world for the Jewish people. Located in the Old City of Jerusalem, it is the western support wall of the Temple Mount. Thousands of people journey to the wall every year to visit and recite prayers. These prayers are either spoken or written down and placed in the cracks of the wall. The wall splits into two sections, one area for males and the other for females. It is one of the major highlights in any tour of the Old City.

King Herod built this wall in 20 BCE during an expansion of the Second Temple. When the Romans destroyed the temple in 70 CE, the support wall survived. For hundreds of years, people prayed in the small area of the wall that could be seen. In 1967, following the Six-Day War, Israelis dug below the ground of the wall, exposing two more levels. They also cleared the area around the wall to create the Western Wall Plaza that visitors see today.

The site is open to all people and is the location of various ceremonies, such as military inductions and bar mitzvahs. The Western Wall is free and is open all day, year-round. Women and men should dress modestly in the Western Wall Plaza. To pray at the wall, women should have their legs and shoulders covered. Men should cover their head.

My name is Zahi Shaked
In 2000 I became a registered licensed tourist guide.
My dedication in life is to pass on the ancient history of the Holy Land.

Following upon many years of travel around the world, which was highlighted by a very exciting emotional and soul-searching meeting with the Dalai Lama, I realized that I had a mission. To pass on the history of the Holy Land, its religions, and in particular, the birth and development of Christianity.

In order to fulfill this "calling" in the best way possible, I studied in depth, visited, and personally experienced each and every important site of the ancient Christians. I studied for and received my first bachelors degree in the ancient history of the Holy Land, and am presently completing my studies for my second degree.(Masters)



Parralel to my studies, and in order to earn a living, I was employed for many years in advertising. What I learned there was how to attract the publics attention, generate and, increase interest, and assimilate information. All this I use as tools to describe, explain and deepen the interest in the sites that we visit. From my experience, I have learned that in this way, the Holy Land becomes more than just history, and that the large stones that we see scattered about in dissaray, join together one by one until they become - a Byzantine Church. This also happens when I lead a group of Pilgrims in the Steps of Jesus. We climb to the peak of Mount Precipice, "glide" over the land to the Sea of Galilee, land on the water and "see" the miracle which enfolds before us. This is a many faceted experience. Not only history which you will remember and cherish, but an experience which I hope will be inplanted in your hearts and minds, and will accompany you all the days of your life.

Being a Muslim myself, it's so upsetting to see sooo much hatred from Muslims 🥺. WALLAHIII this brought tears to my eyes.. This is horrible. We aren't supposed to hurt ANYONE'S feelings. Our Prophet (s.a.w) ALWAYS said to RESPECT EVERYONE 😞💔. He (s.a.w) also said "SPEAK A GOOD WORD OR REMAIN SILENT""..

IT'S SO HEARTBREAKING TO SEE HIS (S.A.W)'s ummah are not even practicing or following his words. These ppl are thinking that commenting "Astagfirullah", "Alhamdulillah", (more like HURTING SOMEONE ELSE'S RELIGIOUS SENTIMENT) will make them

Do you even know YOU CAN GO TO HELL FOR THIS STUPID, INHUMANE

If these Jews are looking funny/weird to us, we should think how might we appear to them while praying salah, or doing our rituals.
Please respect.
We believe in the same ONE GOD

I don't understand why people pray the wall, stones and other objects because God is invisible, made very clearly in scriptures not to bow nor worship objects

Why are people writing “Astaghfirullah” here as if something wrong is being done? They are praying the same God, they just call Him differently: Adonai or Jehovah.

People who are shaming the religion, please note that personal comments can be made by everyone! Please to choose to be matured enough to respect the religion and God. If you hate group of people from a religion, keep it to yourself. But don't mock any religion or God!!
