Digging Completed on Tunnel Linking City of David and Western Wall in Jerusalem
(Ha'aretz) Nir Hasson - The Israel Antiquities Authority has completed an archaeological dig of a tunnel dating back to the Second Temple that links the City of David with the Archaeological Park near the Western Wall. It will enable visitors to cross under the walls of Jerusalem's Old City, but does not come near the Temple Mount. The digging had been going on for seven years. Even though no opening was made giving access to the Western Wall, there are plans to do so in the future.
