*EXCLUSIVE* Photos of the Kotel Renovations

(Okay – anybody can take these photos but I haven’t seen anyone do so yet.)


So if you’ve visited the Kotel lately and you’re a woman you’ve noticed that you don’t have much room. (Women have been complaining for years that there is hardly any room “indoors” for them.) Well stay tuned!


And if you’ve visited the Kotel lately and you’re a man you’ve noticed that the indoor cave portion of the Kotel has been closed every other day while mini bulldozers scurried in and out.

What exactly have they been doing in there?

Well last week we got our first look and the results are amazing!

Check these out:


The first thing you’ll notice is lots of more lighting has been added. The stones are now brightly lit up and they look just stunning!


Also, I’m no engineer but it looks to me like some beams have been reinforced with steel.


There are some beautiful new bookcases.


Some have not even been “unwrapped” yet.


Brighter lights added so we could actually see the bottom of the kotel.


And what’s this? Could it be an Ezrat Nashim? Sure looks like it to me!


Some cameras.


A new public sound system.



And – YES! Nice new air conditioners – COOL!
