    The opening party of the 27th Jewish Culture Festival in Krakow paid homage to Jerusalem, focusing on the vibrant atmosphere of Mahane Yehuda, the city’s largest market. By day, it’s a bustling hub filled with people and the delightful aromas of fresh produce and spices. As night falls, it transforms into a lively party venue, with bars popping up amidst the stalls, live music, and a diverse international crowd.

    For one memorable evening, the market square near the Market Hall in Krakow took on the spirit of Jerusalem’s bustling souk. The market stalls were closed, making way for a dance floor, while a potent blend of Middle Eastern music reverberated through the air, courtesy of a team of Tel Aviv DJs.
