No. Nehemiah's wall was a fortification structure that surrounded the Old City of Jerusalem and has since been completely destroyed. The Western Wall is a retaining wall within the city to make the Great Temple esplanade level.

The Western Wall in Jerusalem is called the Kotel in Hebrew. It is also called ha-kotel or ha-kotel ha-maaravi.

The Wailing Wailers was created in 1964.

The Wailing Siren Mystery was created on 1951-01-01.

Live footage of the Wailing Wall can be viewed at United With Israel. It is regarded as one of the most sacred sites in Judaism, and can be viewed using the Interactive Camera.

It is not the Muslims who go to the Wailing Wall; it is the Jews.

However, the Wailing Wall is the retaining wall of the central plateau upon which sit Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Dome of the Rock Shrine which together comprise the third holiest site in the world for Islam.

What is now known as the Wailing Wall, or Western Wall, was built as a retaining wall for a huge mound that King Herod the Great had constructed for the Temple he was building or extending in its centre. Little is left of the Temple and its surrounds, and the Wall has achieved iconic status among Jews.

The only item in the Holy of Holies was the Ark of the Covenant, containing the two Stone Tablets.

If it is a holiday, Jews will walk to the Western Wall (usually from somewhere inside of Jerusalem). During the weekdays, a number of people drive or take buses to the Western Wall.

The Western Wall (often incorrectly named the Wailing Wall) is the holiest site in the world for Jews and "wall where Jews pray" as phrased in the question.

The Second Great Temple (as built by Prophets Ezra and Nehemiah and improved by King Herod) had a large esplanade or plaza. However, as Jerusalem is hilly, the northeastern corner was at a higher elevation than the southwest corner. As a result, retaining walls for the esplanade were built on the western and southern sides of the esplanade to keep it level. The Western Wall is the portion of the western retaining wall that is the closest area to where the Holy of Holies sat on the esplanade.

The Western Wall is often incorrectly stated or oversimplified to be a part of the Second Temple. The Second Temple was completely destroyed by the Roman General Titus when he conquered the city in 70 C.E. As said above, the Western Wall is part of the esplanade itself (i.e. the retaining wall) as opposed to the Second Temple building individually.

The Holy of Holies refers to the place in the Ancient Jewish Temple where it is believed that God actually resided. No one was allowed to enter this place (covered with a huge curtain) except the High Priest of the Temple. He was only allowed (by God) to "enter in" to that place once per year. When he DID go in, the other priests wrapped a rope around his waist, so that if something happened to him while in there (ie: heart attack, whatever), they could pull him back out, as no one else was ALLOWED to enter for any reason.

The sash were tied to signify there priesthood as Commanded by the Lord.
