In 2023, despite the warnings of the Ukrainian authorities and security services, more than 23 thousand Hasidic pilgrims visited Uman.
In Uman there is a grave of the tzaddik (righteous man) Nachman, the founder of the so-called Bratslav current of Hasidism, one of the most revered shrines and a place of pilgrimage for representatives of this current. All Jews from this stream of Hasidism consider it their duty to visit the grave of Tzaddik Nachman at least once in their life and believe that the new year, if they meet him on the holiday of Rosh Hashanah in Uman, will definitely be a happy one for them.
