HANUKKAH HIGHLIGHTS: Celebrations Around the World

Jewish tinsmiths in Morocco made Hanukkah lamps from many materials, such as the one seen here made from tin, fabric scraps, and colored glass. Moroccan Jews lit the lamp to the right of the entrance to their home. A newly married couple in traditional Moroccan-Jewish dress lights the lamp for the first time together, as musicians in the courtyard play in honor of the celebrations that continue after the wedding.
