Description
Mea Shearim is like stepping into a living piece of Jewish history. When Sukkot rolls around, the narrow, cobblestone streets buzz with activity as families set up their sukkahs on rooftops and balconies, adorning them with bright, colorful decorations. There’s a feeling of excitement in the air as everyone prepares for the holiday—lulavs and etrogs are proudly carried, and the sounds of joyous preparations fill the neighborhood. Sharing festive meals in these makeshift sukkahs under the open sky, you really feel the warmth and connection of the community. It’s a time when tradition feels alive and vibrant, making Sukkot a collective and spiritually enriching experience.
