Jerusalem at Night

Jerusalem is beautiful at night. You can click these pics to enlarge. Here is a photo of the Western Wall of the Temple Mount at night. The Western Wall is the wall King Herod built beginning around 20 B.C. to support the temple platform that he was renovating. This is not the wall of the Jewish temple itself, but the wall that supported Herod's enlarged platform.

While this picture is very interesting, but even more interesting is the stuff in the foreground of the picture. Excavations taking part in the Western Wall Plaza. I'm not sure what's up there yet but I'll find out.
