Join thousands of pilgrims who come up to Jerusalem every year, and come to the Western Wall – the remnant of our Temple and the source of the Jewish nation’s yearning and inspiration.
The Western Wall Prayer Plaza is open all day, every day of the year. Official state and private events are held here, including ceremonies for Memorial Day for IDF fallen soldiers, swearing-in ceremonies, prayer gatherings, and bar mitzvah events.
