<DIV>I asked specifically. They said that going by the machmir positions, there
is still sufficient places to visit on the area known nowadays as the Temple
Mount to walk for a period of 2 hours.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Rav Yaakov Ariel made a clarification of his psak on this issue in
this week's Parsha letter where he noted that we were allowed to walk in the
area known as the "machteima", and not on the Temple Mount itself. This
area is still on the other side of the Western Wall, in the area known
colloquially by all as Har HaBayit.</DIV>
