Recently (September and October, 2008) I had the privilege of visiting Jerusalem; western wall; place where Christ was crucified and his tomb. If anyone gets the change to visit, PLEASE do so. It is definitely a life changing experience. It brought me closer to my God.

WHEN I WENT AND 1984,IT IS BEUTHIFUL PLACE THAT I WANT TO GO BACK,I HAVE SO MUCH EXPERIENCE,AND PEOPLE ARE SO GREAT,IT WAS WORTH THE MONEY,,I HOPE SOME DAY I WILL GO BACK AGAIN,I LOVE IT.

I thought I would find it depressing and boring!
I actually spent far more time there than I expected. It was riviting and sad. The stories on tape were mesmerizing. We also spent time looking for family members in the computers.

this is a must on any trip to israel, eventhough you can see the yad vashem in d.c, its not the same, in israel it all comes to life, to get a good feeling about the place you should free a few hours no less the 3 not including the trip there and back

I visited Yad Vashem last June and it was an unforgettable experience.

I was moved to tears practically throughout my visit - not least entering the building containing the Childrens Memorial.

The whole exhibition brought home the terrible truth about man's inhumanity to man and the triumphant spirit of the Jewish People to overcome those who would seek to exterminate them.

Is the biggest museum about the Holocaust, I think. Very touching place, pictures, movies, real things of that events, clothes, shoes, papers, etc. You must see this.

its one of the sadest place i ever visit. dont miss out the new holocaust museum and the children memorial.

special is the visit on yom ha shoa - the holocaust memorial day.

just a must to visit!

I've been to the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. a number of times. In my opinion, it is superb but doesn't even come close to Yad Veshem. We spent almost 4 hours going through the museum, and could've spent even more.

I found the numerous video testimonies of the survivors to be fascinating and touching.

They've done a great job with the new museum, it's definitely worth going, and if you've been, going back.

The architecture of the new museum is incredible, and the material inside is fascinating. We had given ourselves two hours to go through the museum, but it wasn't enough.

And then of course there's the other ...
