I visited Yad Vashem, It is history, suffering, pain. The effort behind organizing something like this is much appreciated. It is a lesson for all. Let it not happen again.

“This is a must see in jerusalem”
I had little time but I feel this was a very well thought out memorial to the holocaust victims. Take the light rail to get here and then walk 10 mins from Mount Herzl station.
