After 2,000 years, Pilgrims’ Road reopens in Jerusalem - Israel Today
"In a moment heavy with history and faith, Israel on Tuesday inaugurated the full length of the ancient Pilgrims’ Road—the 600-meter stone path that once carried worshippers from the Pool of Siloam to the Temple.
The event, marking the completion of 13 years of excavation, was attended by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Ambassador Mike Huckabee, ministers, Jerusalem’s mayor, and senior archaeologists."
The ancient road runs roughly 650 yards and is now open on both ends. Huckabee noted on X that the attendees became the first to make the pilgrimage from the City of David to the Temple Mount in 2,000 years.
