Israel The Wailing Wall!


Out of all the countries in southwest Asia I thought Israel was the most interesting. The population of Israel is mostly jewish. It is on the east coast of the Mediterranean sea.  Israel has beautiful beaches and lots of historical places.  One of the most interesting historical landmarks is called the “Wailing Wall”.  You can find this wall in the Old Quarter of East Jerusalem.  The Jewish community believes that the “Wailing Wall” is actually the Western Wall of the Second Temple.  Many people, not just jews, go to visit the wall because they believe it to be a sacred place.  People pray at the wall and even write down their prayers and slip them into the wall.  I would love to see the Wailing Wall because I think it is a beautiful ancient landmark.  And I am jewish and would like to see some jewish history.   Would you like to take your prayers to the Wailing Wall?
