Ukraine: Jewish New Year in Uman - 2008

UKRAINE, Uman, 2008/09..Bearded and wearing black hats, Hasidic pilgrims make their way down Pushkin street to the prayers rooms. Local inhabitants got used to see their quiet city transformed into an international hub of the Hasidic movement. The Hasidic arrivals are a blessing for the local population of Uman, where the average salary is around 180 dollars a month..© Cyril Horiszny / EST&OST
