The holiest of Jewish sites is not a synagogue, but a wall. This does not withhold religious Jews from using the plaza and the wall as an outdoor praying facility and is an excellent place to observe their prayers.
Over time, the wall was heightened to support the Temple Mount as it is now, and houses were built very close to it. It never lost its religious significance, and jewish pilgrims continued to come here, also to mourn the loss of their ancient temple. This is why the wall is also known as the Wailing Wall; in some languages, that is even the only name, while for some religious Jews it is an offence to call it like that. When the Israeli army took hold of the city in 1967, one of the first things they did was move to the wall area, bulldoze the houses of the Arab quarter out of the way, thus creating the plaza that you see now. Like other religious sites in the holy city, also the Western Wall is contested: Muslims claim it is part of the Al Aqsa mosque.
