This is a beautiful and moving tribute to the 6 million people murdered by the Nazis. Give yourself plenty of time to see the videos and read the plaques.

MoreIsrael's government dedicated this place to preserving the memory of the dead; honouring Jews who fought against the Nazis. There are many exhibition halls but one that gave me a long lasting haunting memory was "The Hall of Names". When I went in I saw hundreds of photos displayed on the upper cone. It is a memorial to the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust and calls out their name one by one. Let there be no more hatred and bigotry in mankind. Happy Travelling!
