Jews Gather In Uman For Rosh Hashanah

UMAN, UKRAINE - SEPTEMBER 08: Hasidic Jews eat in a cafeteria that serves 15,000 kosher meals twice a day for free prior to the annual Rosh Hashanah celebration on September 8, 2018 in Uman, Ukraine. Tens of thousands of Hasidic and Orthodox Jews, including many Breslov (also called Bratslav) Hasidim, a specific group of Hasidic Jews, have made the annual journey from all over the world to Uman to visit the tomb of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov, who founded the Breslov sect in 1802. The pilgrims come for a spiritual experience and religious discussions, but also to celebrate in what one participant describes as a "Jewish Woodstock." The Breslov sect grew, attracting thousands of followers, until Stalin's purges and decimation in the Holocaust. Breslov Hasidism has since revived and its followers live mostly in Israel, the United States and Great Britain. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images)
