Question

Hello, Is there a place in Israel where it is customary nowadays to bless "Who performed miracles for our ancestors in this place"? Or "Who uprooted idol worship from our land"?

Answer

Hello 

The blessing "Who performed miracles in this place" is not recited because the exact location of the miracles that happened to Israel is not known to us. 

The blessing "Who uprooted idol worship" can occur when a house of idol worship is uprooted, even in our time.
