Bar Mitzvah

Bar Mitzvah

A Bar Mitzvah procession in Jerusalem.

We were fortunate to encounter this celebratory procession near Zion Gate in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem. The young man celebrating his Bar Mitzvah is shielded beneath a canopy and accompanied by family and well wishers to the beating of drums and the sounding of ram’s horn trumpets.
