Leading up to Tisha B'Av, we take a look at the most Jewish People's most important site and the epicenter of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict today - the Temple Mount.

The Temple Mount is arguably the most disputed real estate on earth — or should we say Haram al-Sharif? Even its name stirs a debate! As the site of ancient Jewish Temples and Al Aqsa Mosque, the area is not just a flashpoint in history, but a focal point of ongoing controversy.

The 35-acre compound also houses the resplendent golden Dome of the Rock and the centuries-old Western Wall. In what is known as the status quo, Muslims can pray at the site, while Jews and Christians are allowed to visit but not pray.
