Haredi society is characterized by deliberate separation from the outside world, in order to preserve itself from the penetration of values that are unacceptable to it. Among the Hasidic sects, clothing is the object of great attention and reflects their customs and geographic origins. Certain items (such as pants tucked into the socks among the Gur Hasidic people) attest to the belonging of the same subjects.tradition – culture that we are passing in this day is Passover, also called Pesach and lasts for either seven days.
Observant Jews spend the weeks before Passover in a flurry of thorough housecleaning, to remove every morsel of chametz from every part of the home
The orthodox people must remove all chametz "before the fifth hour, before Passover
They burn all the chametz that was found during the search, and anything that was left over from breakfast and not stored.
Any chametz or leaven that is in my possession which I have not seen and have not removed and do not know about should be annulled and become ownerless like the dust of the earth.
In this project I try to pass through the photos as it continues to maintain the traditions and cultures in the modern world.
