Witness the wall of cars collected from the festival, roadside, and kibbutzim. Today, it stands as a monument that speaks for itself. On one hand, it’s a horrific sight with hundreds of vehicles from hippie cars to terrorist pickups and motorcycles. On the other hand, this is where many have joined forces. From the Ministry of Treasury, Ministry of Archaeology to ZAKA (community emergency response) to volunteers, this is a live example that in times of crisis we all work together.
