A long history and future for the Kotel E-mail

The Western Wall, the Kotel, stands at over 60 feet high and is over 180 feet long. Despite its modest name, it is the most signifi cant site for Jews worldwide.

It is the last remnant of the Temple and a place that Jews from around the world gather to pray.
