Jerusalem Behind the Scenes : Holocaust Museum & Western Wall

Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Spend a contemplative day in Jerusalem and discover the significance of two revered sites. First on your itinerary is the Western Wall, also known as the Wailing Wall. Located in the southeast section of the Old City, Jews consider it their holiest site. Built by Herod the Great in 19 B.C., the massive wall is actually part of the Temple Mount foundation. Next, learn the individual impact of the Holocaust on the Jewish people at the Yad Vashem. Dedicated to the millions of Jews who died during World War II, the museum presents the story of the Holocaust from a unique Jewish perspective, emphasizing the experiences of the victims through original artifacts, survivor testimonies and personal possessions. Led by one of the museum's professional guides, this behind-the-scenes look at the exhibits offer a unique look on one of history's darkest chapters.

Special Notes:

Please note that children until the age of 10 CANNOT visit Yad Veshem.
