Jerusalem Archaeology Park | Davidson Center

Israel video tour with David Hyman, professional tour guide. Many of my Jewish and Christian visitors are interested in learning about the Second Temple period in Israel and Jerusalem. The Temple was destroyed by the Roman armies on Tisha B'av 70 AD and has never been rebuilt. Mosques were built on the forme Temple Mount and therefore it is impossible to excavate the site. After the Six-Day War, an opportunity occurred, when Israel liberated the Old City and it was possible to launch a full-scale excavation just south of the Temple Mount, an area that was in complete despair and covered with piles of earth and garbage. The excavation revealed what is now known as the Jerusalem Archaeology Park, The Davidson Center. Walking the paths of the park is the closest you can get to the grandeur of Jerusalem during the days of the Temple. We will see parts of the south walls of the temple, we will walk on one of the original streets, we can reed ancient inscription carved into the rock. The south steps are extremely moving, as this was probably the official entrance to the Temple platform after the purification in the Mikve ( Ritual Bath)
