Description
The Hebrew Ha-Kotel Ha-Maʿaravi refers to the western retaining wall surrounding Jerusalem's Temple Mount. Sometimes called the "Wailing Wall," since Jews pray and cry near it, it is built of large limestones hewn for the Second Temple, which was enlarged during the reign of Herod (37–4 b.c.e.), king of Judea.
In a land of Holy Sites, this is probably the holiest, or most revered.There is a tradition of placing a prayer written on a small slip of paper and placed in the wall,in cracks between the stones. Every few days a caretaker collects them and buries them in a cemetery on the Mount of Olives. It is such a well know tradition that even the Pope has left a prayer!
