In Pictures: Duke Visits Jerusalem´s Sacred Sites
The Duke of Cambridge has visited the Western Wall - the holiest site in Judaism as it is the last remnant of Herod's temple - on the final day of his tour of the Middle East.
William, wearing a kippah, or skull cap, as a mark of respect, approached the landmark and http://99situsqq.com/ followed the centuries-old tradition of placing a written prayer in a crack in the wall.
Earlier in the day he made a poignant pilgrimage to the final resting place in Jerusalem of his great-grandmother, Princess Alice.
