Western Wall Plaza Live Cam

This live webcam offers a close-up view of Western Wall Plaza, broadcasting from Simcha Hall at the Kotel, located in Jerusalem's Old City, Israel. The camera provides a moving perspective of the surrounding areas of Western Wall Plaza, a public venue that hosts numerous ceremonies and events throughout the year, recognized as the most sacred site for the Jewish community worldwide. The Western Wall, also referred to as the Wailing Wall, is a smaller section of a larger ancient retaining wall that was constructed as part of the Jewish Temple's expansion. Its closeness to the Temple Mount, regarded as the most revered location in Judaism, makes the Western Wall the holiest place for Jewish prayer. This particular view is captured from Simcha Hall at the Kotel restaurant, which is indicated on the map located further down the page.
