The Western Wall, known in Hebrew as HaKotel HaMa'aravi, is a structure in Jerusalem considered sacred by Jews. It is the surviving western section of the ancient Great Temple, hence also known as the "Western Wall."
Jews believe this wall is a remnant of the Temple Mount built by Solomon and consider it sacred.
In fact, Jews call it "HaKotel HaMa'aravi" (Western Wall). The name "Wailing Wall" became widespread over time due to Christian influence.
The wall is approximately 485 meters long. It consists of 24 rows of large stone blocks above ground and 19 rows below ground. Its height above ground is approximately 18 meters, with 6 meters above the level of the temple area. Some stones are quite large: some can exceed 12 meters in length and 100 tons in weight.
The Jerusalem Project was prepared with contributions from 360TR, STD24, and Aykut İnce.
