The Western Wall

By Maxwell Beauchamp

The Western Wall is a famous and religious site in Jerusalem. It is on the temple mound compound and near the Dome of the Rock, religious to the Muslims. It is over 2000 years old. It was the sight of the first and second Temple. The Western Wall is 13 meters and weighs 570 tons. It is made of limestone. It has 45 rows of stone, 28 of these are above ground and 17 are below. That means the western wall is partially underground! From 1948 to 1967, because Jerusalem was cut in half, the Israelis had the west and the Jordanians had the east of the western wall. During these years the western wall was off limits to the Jews. At the Western Wall people put notes in the slots. They put them in so God can read their notes. The Western Wall is a religious site and I hope you go there someday!
