* Hanukkah

is a winter Jewish holiday that lasts eight days. It is the "Festival of Lights". Hanukkah has a very strong symbolic significance for the Jews because it is a question of celebrating the victory of the light on darkness, in the literal sense as in the figurative sense. To celebrate the miracle of the oil vial, it is customary to have one candle lit on each feast day, which makes a total of 8 candles.
