There is a lot of information, so take a few hours to walk thru the museum. There are a lot of interesting objects. Hard to believe pictures, that make you wonder why humans can do something like this. It is very important to take a guide or ask for the earphones to listen to all the explanations. Be respectful about... More

One of the must see places if you ever visit Jerusalem. Moving and heart wrenching. All Holocaust deniers should visit and try and deny it then!

Yad Vashem is a little way out of Jerusalem (a taxi ride away), but its worth the journey for a bit of respite from the crowded and vibrant old city, in a quiet place for contemplation. The memorial is a mix of museum and memorial grounds, and I think it gets the balance right. There is an indoor museum with... More

The area where the museum is, the architecture and the exhibit is really good. It is very easy to get to the place tacking the tram from Damascus gate if you are staying near the old city, It is free and you it would take at least 4 hrs to see most of it.

Hi everyone, Situated on Mt Hertzl in the new Jerusalem, is this museum which is unlike any regular collection of items but a collection of feelings and emotions. Please take a minimum of 3hrs for this magnificent piece of haunting history. First info for the visitors, catch the light rail to Mt Hertzl and then take the free shuttle to... More

Every person who visits Israel must visit Yad Vashem. The experience is indescribable. The Shoah testimonials were especially moving, and left my husband in tears and me on the verge. My husband's father and grandparents escaped Nazi Germany during WWII, and most of the extended family perished at Hitler's hateful hand. I'll never forget.

The audio and visual displays are powerful,moving and very well done. The architects did an excellent job with the gardens and buildings to build a spiritual space. It is a must see for all adults. Allow enough time. There is much to see and hear.

bit disappointed it was closed for a holiday that was not told to tourists surely it should stay open at all times

Its a must go for everyone. Difficult to describe. Everyone needs to go. At least once. Don't rush thru the museum. Take your time. You may only go once.
