Since the Destruction of the Temple (some 2,000 years ago), Jews do not have any required pilgrimages, so there are no rituals that would be associated with them.
In a more generic and modern context, because the existence of the State of Israel enables Jews to make pilgrimages to the Land of Israel (where before such access was forbidden or severely curtailed), many Jews make pilgrimages to such sites as the Western Wall, the Cave of the Patriarchs, the Tombs of Joseph and Rachel, and the Medieval Kabbalistic Synagogues of Zefat (Safed). Jews who perform these pilgrimages do not do anything special at these places other than pray in typical Jewish style. The one exception is the Western Wall, where Jews will often write small paper notes with prayers to God and stick them within the crevices of the wall after praying.
Before the year 70, when the Temple in Jerusalem was still in operation, the Torah commanded three pilgrimages a year, at Pesach, Shavuot and Succot (Passover, the Feast of Weeks or Pentecost, and the Festival of Booths). These festivals are each referred to as a Chag (the Ch like in Bach or Loch), meaning pilgrimage, and cognate to the Arabic word Hajj, which means the same thing). On the pilgrimage, everyone went to the Temple, the services were incredible -- the Roman tourist Pliny the younger said the services attracted tourists from around the Roman Empire. In contrast, Jews since the Year 70 have had no formal pilgrimage obligations, although some view a visit to Jerusalem as something of a pilgrimage.
No, Jews stopped going on pilgrimage with the destruction of the Second Temple.
While Judaism does not mandate pilgrimage to any site, many Jews willingly make the pilgrimage to the Western Wall because of the holiness with which Jews see the site.
In Modern times, a Jewish pilgrimage is generally a reference to visiting Israel. Other than that, Jews no longer make pilgrimages.(In ancient times, the Jews would make pilgrimages to the Temple in Jerusalem, which no longer exists.)Modern Jews do not go on pilgrimage.
The Jewish pilgrimage, set forth in Deuteronomy ch.16, provided them with an awareness of God that remained with the participants for decades.
There are 3 pilgrimage holidays. Passover, which is the in spring. Shavuot-the early summer. And Sukkot which is in the fall. These holidays were pilgrimages in ancient times, but that aspect has all but disappeared among Jews. Today, the concept of a pilgrimage in Judaism is not very common, and in fact, unheard of among many Jews.. Modern interpretation of the concept of a pilgrimage is that every Jewish person Should visit Israel once in their lifetime to reconnect with their roots.
When the Temple was standing, the Torah (Deuteronomy 14:23) states that a visit there would make a person more God-fearing (aware of God). However, with the destruction of the second Temple in 70 CE, Jews have not gone on pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
The pilgrimage was made when the Temple was standing. Jews would go there three times a year as commanded, to celebrate the Festivals (Deuteronomy ch.16).
Jews haven't gone on pilgrimage in almost 2000 years.
As far as I know, ancient Judaism did not have a pilgrimage either of the kind taken by Muslims to Mecca or of the kind taken by Christians (such as the English pilgrimage to St. Thomas Becket's tomb at Canterbury). However, as long as the Temple stood, the people of Israel traveled to the Temple at Jerusalem for sacrifices and for certain holy days, such as Passover.
Modern Jews do not go on pilgrimage and haven't done so for approximately 1,960 years.
In the days when the Jewish Temple stood in Jerusalem, Jews were supposed to make a pilgrimage three times each year to the Temple. On Passover, on Shavuot (the Feast of Weeks or Pentecost) and on Succot (the festival of Booths). These pilgrimage holy days were ended when Rome destroyed the temple in the year 70. It's probable that many Jews did not make every pilgrimage back in late Temple times because the Jewish community was already spreading out into the Roman empire even a century before the Temple was destroyed, and Jews living in Greece and Rome could not take perilous trips three times a year.
a lesser pilgrimage is a pilgrimage that is lesser than the normal pilgrimage
