This solemn memorial of the six million Jews killed during the Holocaust, tells a horrible story but also brings a hope - Jewish Nation not only has survived but also has managed to built the most prospering and successful Independent State, making new Jewish Holocaust simply impossible.
Jewish Quarter
Destroyed in 1948 by the invading Jordanian Army, this Jewish Quarter of Jerusalem has been fully rebuilt and presents a unique combination of the ancient and modern at one place. Here you will visit the Roman Street Cardo and will also see the remnants of the "Wide Wall" built by the King Hezekiah in 702 BC
The Cardo
One of the best preserved Roman streets, was fully restored within the limits of the Jewish Quarter
This Synagogue was initially established by Ramban in the XIII Century. Since that time it was destroyed and rebuilt multiple times. The last time it happened in 1948, when it was blown up by the Jordanian Army. Finally it was rebuilt and reopened only in 2010, to represent a revival of Jerusalem
