Live The Western Wall in Jerusalem

Watch this live HD webcam of the Western Wall in Jerusalem, Israel.

Known as the most holy site in the Jewish faith. Its significance lies in the fact that it is the last remnant of the original retaining wall which surrounded the Second Temple, which was built over 2,000 years ago. The “Kotel,” as it is called in Hebrew, evokes a mystical connection to history, Judaism, and personal prayer. People come to meditate at this sacred site and place notes with their personal prayers into the cracks between the stones. It’s popular for being a place of prayer and pilgrimage sacred to the Jewish people. View the Gaza Strip Live stream here.
