052-268-5950
Lag B'Omer is one of the most unique holidays in Judaism, observed annually on the 18th of Iyar. This day is deeply connected to the spiritual legacy of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai (Rashbi) and the famous bonfires that symbolize the light of the Torah and Kabbalah.
Thousands of visitors make a pilgrimage to Rashbi’s tomb on Mount Meron, near Safed, to celebrate with joy and spirituality. The city of Safed, known as one of the four holy cities, attracts special attention during Lag B'Omer due to its proximity to Mount Meron. Many visitors choose to stay in Safed's vacation rentals, boutique accommodations, and guest houses, blending the holiday experience with a fascinating tour of the old city’s narrow alleyways, mystical atmosphere, art galleries, and historic synagogues.
Lag B'Omer features unique traditions and events: large bonfires in communities across Israel, gatherings of families and friends, festive meals, and joyous singing and dancing. In Safed, visitors can experience the combination of the city’s sanctity with the holiday's colorful festivities.
Many take advantage of their stay to explore Safed’s tourist attractions, such as the ancient alleys, historic synagogues—including the Ari and Abuhav Synagogues—local museums, and famous art galleries. Over the years, Lag B'Omer has become a major event in domestic tourism, with many visitors traveling to Mount Meron and continuing to Safed for a vacation that blends culture, history, and spirituality.
Families often prefer to hold their bonfires in the open spaces near the city or participate in organized celebrations at local guest houses and lodgings. Visiting Safed during Lag B'Omer provides an uplifting experience, offering insights into Jewish heritage and the beauty of the city and surrounding area.
Those planning to stay in the area should book accommodations in advance, as the high demand for vacation rentals, guest houses, and hotels in Safed makes this period particularly busy.

Lag BaOmer is considered a day of joy for youth movements, and since 1984, children's parades have been held on Lag BaOmer in many places throughout the country and the world, organized by the Chabad movement. Many of those who practice mourning customs during the counting of the Omer stop their mourning on Lag BaOmer or immediately after it ends. Even among those who continue to practice mourning customs until Shavuot, it is customary to get a haircut and shave on Lag BaOmer.
