The TorahVR team is revolutionizing the way people experience the Beis HaMikdash with their immersive and interactive virtual reality experience.
Bais Rivkah campers were enthralled by the chance to walk around the Beis Hamikdash, learn about every aspect of it and meet Kohanim and Levi’im in the midst of their holy service.
Through the use of TorahVR technology, students are transported back in time to experience the practical mitzvos in a way that was previously impossible, giving them a deeper understanding of the history and significance of this important tenet of Judaism.
The TorahVR team has received high praise from students and educators alike. Many have reported that the MikDash experience has made the Beis HaMikdash come to life for them in a way that they have never experienced before.
Camp directors have noted that MikDash has provided their campers with a deeper understanding of the Beis Hamikdash and has helped to engage them in learning in a way that was not possible during regular learning classes.
After almost 200 campers from Bais Rivkah experienced TorahVR, all the campers had a blast and immediately requested the camp to bring it back for another day saying they wanted more time playing MikDash. As a result, campers who had never learned about the Beis Hamikdash were suddenly familiar with all the lingo of everything involved with the Beis Hamikdash.
TorahVR’s success in bringing MikDash, just the first of their many offerings, to over 18,000 people worldwide, is a testament to the power of technology to revolutionize the way we learn and experience the Torah.
The TorahVR team will be visiting US camps throughout the summer to invite thousands of campers into the Beis Hamikdash!
