The Western Wall Tunnel Jerusalem מנהרת הכותל ירושלים עם צחי שקד
The Western Wall Tunnel is an underground tunnel exposing the full length of the Western Wall. The tunnel is adjacent to the Western Wall and is located under buildings of the Old City of Jerusalem, Israel. While the open-air portion of the Western Wall is approximately 60 metres (200 ft) long, the majority of its original length is hidden underground. The tunnel allows access to an additional 485 metres (1,591 ft) of the wall
The tunnel exposes a total length of 485 m of the wall, revealing the methods of construction and the various activities in the vicinity of the Temple Mount.[1] The excavations included many archaeological finds along the way, including discoveries from the Herodian period (streets, monumental masonry), sections of a reconstruction of the Western Wall dating to the Umayyad period, and various structures dating to the Ayyubid, Mamluke and Hasmonean periods constructed to support buildings in the vicinity of the Temple Mount.
Warren's Gate lies about 150 feet (46 m) into the tunnel. This sealed-off entrance has been turned into a small synagogue called The Cave, by Rabbi Yehuda Getz, since it is the closest point a Jew can get to the Holy of Holies, assuming it was located at the traditional site under the Dome of the Rock.
At the northern portion of the Western Wall, remains of a water channel, which originally supplied water to the Temple Mount, were found. The exact source of the channel is unknown, though it passes through an underground pool known as the Struthion Pool. The water channel was dated to the Hasmonean period and was accordingly dubbed the Hasmonean Channel.
The biggest stone in the Western Wall often called the Western Stone is also revealed within the tunnel and ranks as one of the heaviest objects ever lifted by human beings without powered machinery. The stone has a length of 13.6 metres (45 ft) and an estimated width of between 3.5 metres (11 ft) and 4.5 metres (15 ft); estimates place its weight at 570 short tons (510 long tons).
Adjacent to the tunnel lies a museum called The Chain of Generations Center, designed by Eliav Nahlieli. The impressive site, which incorporates ancient and modern Jewish history, includes an elaborate audiovisual show, and nine magnificent glass sculptures created by glass artist Jeremy Langford.
In 2007 the Israel Antiquities Authority uncovered an ancient Roman street, thought to be from the second to fourth centuries. It was a side street which likely connected two major roads, and led up to the Temple Mount. The discovery of the road gave further evidence that Romans continued to use the Temple Mount after the destruction of the temple in 70 CE.
The Struthion Pool is a large cuboid cistern, which gathered the rainwater from guttering on the Forum buildings. Prior to Hadrian, this cistern had been an open-air pool, but Hadrian added arch vaulting to enable the pavement to be placed over it. The existence of the pool in the first century is attested by Josephus, who reports that it was called Struthius (literally meaning sparrow).[6] This Struthion Pool was originally built as part of an open-air water conduit by the Hasmoneans, which has since been enclosed; the source of the water for this conduit is currently unidentified.
As a result of 1971 extensions to the original Western Wall Tunnel, the Hasmonean water system became linked to the end of the Western Wall Tunnel; although they run under Arab housing, and later opened as a tourist attraction. The attraction has a linear route, starting at the Western Wall Plaza, passing through the modern tunnels, then the ancient water system, and ending at the Struthion Pool; as the Sisters of Zion were not willing to allow tourists to exit into the Convent of the Sisters of Zion via the Struthion Pool, tourists had to return through the narrow tunnels to their starting point, creating logistical issues.
מנהרות הכותל הן מערך חללים ומחילות תת-קרקעיות מתקופות שונות לאורך תוואי הכותל המערבי, מתחת לבתי הרובע המוסלמי בעיר העתיקה בירושלים. במתחם מבנים מתקופת בית שני, מימי הביניים ומהעת החדשה. ציר הליכה אופקי מחבר את החללים והמחילות, מעניק למבקר חוויה של מסע לאורך ציר הזמן ההיסטורי, ונחשב לאחד מאתרי התיירות הפופולריים בישראל. האתר, כנקודת חיכוך רגישה מבחינה דתית בין אוכלוסייה מוסלמית ויהודית, הביא לא פעם לתסיסה, שהגדולה בהן הייתה מהומות מנהרת הכותל ב-1996. פרויקט חשיפת הכותל המערבי לכל אורכו לאחר מלחמת ששת הימים, במטרה לאפשר לכל יהודי לגשת אל הכותל ללא הפרעה וללא מכשול, היה יוזמה של משרד הדתות

My name is Zahi Shaked
In 2000 I became a registered liscenced tourist guide.
My dedication in life is to pass on the ancient history of the Holy Land.
Following upon many years of travel around the world, which was highlighted by a very exciting emotional and soul-searching meeting with the Dalai Lama, I realized that I had a mission. To pass on the the history of the Holy Land, its religions, and in particular, the birth and development of Christianity.
In order to fulfill this calling in the best way possible, I studied in depth, visited, and personally experienced each and every important site of the ancient Christians. I studied for and received my first bachelors degree in the ancient history of the Holy Land, and am presently completing my studies for my second degree.(Masters)
Parralel to my studies, and in order to earn a living, I was employed for many years in advertising. What I learned there was how to attract the publics attention, generate and, increase interest, and assimilate information. All this I use as tools to describe, explain and deepen the interest in the sites that we visit. From my experience, I have learned that in this way, the Holy Land becomes more than just history, and that the large stones that we see scattered about in dissaray, join together one by one until they become - a Byzantine Church. This also happens when I lead a group of Pilgrims in the Steps of Jesus. We climb to the peak of Mount Precipice, glide over the land to the Sea of Galilee, land on the water and see the miracle which enfolds before us. This is a many faceted experience. Not only history which you will remember and cherish, but an experience which I hope will be inplanted in your hearts and minds, and will accompany you all the days of your life.

Entry from: Jerusalem, Israel
Entry Title: Qumran, Masada, Dead Sea, and Jericho
Entry:
Today was a full day of a guided tour via bus. We covered a lot of ground in a short time.
We started with a drive from Jerusalem to Qumran. The drive revealed the desert landscape south of Jerusalem, which we hit immediately upon getting outside of the city. A short break on our way south found the more daring members of the group on the back of a camel for a short walk and a photo opportunity.
Our next stop was Qumran National Park, where the first seven Dead Sea Scrolls were found by Bedouins shepherds in 1947. Additional archeological finds from 1951 through 1956 found additional scrolls and structures that had been undisturbed for thousands of years. The scrolls were left by the Essene sect of the Jews, who were ascetics that distanced themselves from everyone else physicall and spiritually, while focusing on ritual cleansing and studies. It is likely that the scrolls were stored in the jars within the caves by the Essenes when the Roman armies approached in 68 AD, intending to recollect them after successfully repelling the Romans (which would not happen). After leaving Qumran, the Essenes joined the rebels at Masada, where they would die in 73 AD (more on that later). The openings of two of the major caves are easily seen from the group. A large area of structures below the caves have been unearthed and are presented to visitors for viewing.
Next we drove south along the western edge of the Dead Sea down to Masada National Park, where King Herod had built a large fortress on top of a mountain plateau just west of where the northern basin and the southern basin of the Dead Sea meet. Masada is a natural mesa in the desert on the western shore of the Dead Sea. Masada is cloes to the Hebrew word metsuda, which means the stronghold. It is believed that Masada is what is referenced in I Samuel 22:3-5 and I Chronicles 12:1-16 when David and 400 men returned to Judah and camped at the stronghold. It is also suspected to be the location where David fled from Saul in En Gedi in I Samuel 24:22.
King Herod would later build a fortress here between 37 and 31 BC in the event he needed to escape rebellions in Jerusalem. It was also built as a winter home for him and his wives. It is the ruins of this fortress that are on the mesa today. The fortress was made famous as a result of the Jewish rebel stand there in 72 to 73 AD which ended in the death of more than 700 rebels. The rebels had taken refuge in the then-abandoned fortress in 66 AD during the Jewish uprising against Rome. In 72 AD, Rome sent a Roman legion to purge the rebels from the fortress and to send a message to all Roman rebels around the world, but the Jews were difficult to get to and had plenty of provisions to withstand a long siege. Using Jewish slaves, the Romans built an earthen, rock ramp from a hill across the valley to a gate at the fortress in the span of 2 or 3 months, then used modern Roman military technology to gain entry into the fortress where they found everyone dead except for two women and five children, who according to Josephus killed each other the night before in a form of suicide, knowing that they would fall the next day. This is the Israeli's equivalent of the Alamo. Today all Israeli army officers are commissioned in a ceremony at Masada where they commit to never let it fall into enemy hands again.
After driving north again along the Dead Sea (which is 422m below sea level) for a short ways, we stopped at Ein Gedi National Park. Ein Gedi is an oasis on the ...
