To Yad Vashem(the memorial to the six million Jews killed in the Holocaust). Within there is a separate memorial to the 1.5 million children who perished, where 5 lights reflect into mirrors creating the 1.5 million lights of the children. The memorial was donated by Abraham and Edith Spiegal of Beverly Hills, CA in memory of their son Uziel who died in Auschwitz in 1944. Trees have also been planted in honor of the children so they can plant roots in Jerusalem. The holocaust museum represents a complete history with artwork, newspapers, photos, videos, remains of charred clothing, etc. One could spend hours, but we only had one, so we will have to return.
