In the Jewish Quarter we visit the Western Wall, also known as the Wailing Wall.
Jews believe that the Temple Mount was the site of King Solomon's temple, later expanded by King Herod. The Western Wall is all that remains of that expansion, and is where Jews come to pray.
As times have gotten more conservative, the Wall is now roped off into two sections, one for men and one for women.
