Western Wall
Najboljši čas za obisk
Arrive at sunrise on a weekday to watch the golden light hit the stone face, with the fewest crowds and a peaceful atmosphere. Friday evening at sunset offers the powerful sight of Sabbath celebrations, but expect large crowds.
Nasveti za proračun
Entry is completely free, open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Skip the overpriced souvenir carts nearby and buy from the Old City market a 10-minute walk away instead.

O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Each year, millions of tiny handwritten prayer notes are wedged into the ancient stone crevices of this holy site. The massive limestone blocks at the base weigh up to 600 tons each, heavier than a fully loaded Boeing 747.
Poudarki: On a quiet Thursday night, you might spot the elderly "Kotel Ladies" who have been cleaning the prayer nooks for decades, gently removing notes with ivory sticks so none are ever thrown away. Twice a year, the buried prayers are collected and buried in a ceremonial process on the Mount of Olives, a tradition that's continued unbroken for centuries.
Notranji nasveti
- Men and women pray in separate sections, but women can access the men's side from the upper platform for a wider view of the entire plaza.
- Bring a small piece of paper and pen to write your own prayer note, or observe the ceremony from the wooden benches on the plaza edges.
- The Western Wall Tunnels tour (book ahead, about $12) lets you walk along the full 488-meter length of the wall underground.
- Wear a hat or bring a scarf for head covering at the wall itself, though loaner kippahs are available for men at the entrance.
