Jerusalem (& Yad Vashem)

Thursday 23rd June 2011

To day we visited Jerusalem, the capital of Israel (both old and new). Here I am standing just in front of the famous Western Wall (Kotel), dating back to the Second Temple, destroyed by the Romans back in 70 AD.



In the afternoon we were taken to the Holocaust museum, Yad Vashem. It must be the saddest place we have ever been to. To try and understand Israel, you have to visit both this places.
