Israelis come to pay their
respects

by darthmilmo

Thousands of visitors from all over come to pay their respects. Israelis are probably on the top of the list. They visit Auschwitz to pay their respects to family members or friends. As I was walking through the premises I encounter several groups of Israelis. While waiting for the cinema to start, a group of young Israelis pass by the room. Some where proudly wearing or showing an Israeli flag, while others had the traditional Jewish hat. It brought chills and almost tears just to think about the atrocities that occurred here during the Nazi Occupation.

When we visited Auschwitz a group of jews were holding a vigil inside the crematorium.Please dont interupt or make any noise, as it will cause offence.
