The Yad Vashem memorial is entirely dedicated to the memory of all that happened during the Holocaust. It was built on the outskirts of Jerusalem.
Yad VaShem: What to see in the surroundings?
What our travelers think about their stay
Outside of the old centre of Jerusalem, the Yad Vashem memorial is undoubtedly the must-see museum in the 'Holy City' .
My suggestion
Set aside half a day to explore Yad Vashem and don't forget that it is closed from Friday afternoon to Saturday evening.

My suggestion
The Yad Vashem memorial is something that will affect you profoundly. To find a glimmer of hope after such strong emotion, I recommend you spend some time in the Garden of the Righteous before leaving the museum.
