Massada, the most visited site of Israel.

The story of what happened two millennia ago on top of Masada has become a symbol of the Israelis' commitment never to allow "Masada to fall again" and, fifty years after the excavation, Masada is, after Jerusalem, the most visited site of Israel. 

It is possible to climb to the summit on foot, via the traditional serpent-shaped path used by Herod or via the Roman ramp. But most of the millions of tourists who visit Masada are taken from the Masada Museum and Visitors Center to the summit in giant cable cars that operate daily, with the exception of Yom Kippur.
