Garden of the Missing Soldiers, Memorial garden at Mount Herzl, Israel.
The Garden of Missing Soldiers contains empty graves and stone monuments arranged around a central plaza with a memorial wall listing names.
Opening in 2004, this memorial space evolved from a 1954 preservation area dedicated to soldiers whose burial locations remain unknown since 1914.
The garden hosts annual ceremonies on the Seventh of Adar, when families gather to remember soldiers who disappeared during military operations.
Visitors can access the memorial garden through Mount Herzl's main entrance, with dedicated parking spaces and wheelchair-accessible paths throughout the grounds.
A waterfall flows next to the northern wall containing inscribed names of missing military personnel, creating a permanent tribute to their service.
