---------------------------------------
The Western Wall, Judaism's Holiest Site.
---------------------------------
The Shrine of the Book at the Israel Museum, home of the 2000 year old Dead Sea Scrolls. The scrolls date back to the time of Jesus and are considered the greatest archaeological find of the 20th Century. The interior displays are still under construction, but the interior space (shown with Ryce in the second photo below) is very impressive to see.
-----------------------------------------
Yad Vashem, Israel's memorial to the 6 million Jews killed in the Holocaust, estimated to be over one third of all the Jews in the world at the time. Yad Vashem literally means "a name and a place". Two eternal flames burn to remember to victims.
-----------------------------
Although the ground level of Israel Island is primarily dedicated to the city of Jerusalem, other sights around Israel are also shown. Modern Tel Aviv is represented by modernistic 1920's Bahaus architecture, of which Tel Aviv has more than any other city, and modern skyscrapers shown below.
Please note: I am not going to run political comments here related to the political situation in the Middle East. All I am doing is reporting on a Second Life Destination. My blog is simply not the place for a controversial discussion - and the world wide web has many other sites for such comments if you wish to place them.
