Rockefeller Center in Manhattan has been boasting of its giant, festive tree since 1931. Every year, New Yorkers gather around to watch the spruce illuminate the New York skyline.

However, let’s not exclude those who do not celebrate the very holiday the tree symbolizes. Fortunately, the world’s largest menorah is located just a few blocks from the Rockefeller Christmas Tree. The menorah caters to the Jewish community who will commemorate the first night of Hanukkah tonight.

For each night of Hanukkah, one candle on the 32-foot-high candelabra will be lit. Take a trip to the Grand Army Plaza on 59th St. and 5th Avenue to watch the lighting.

Make sure to bundle up and snuggle up to someone special with whom you are celebrating to shield you from the chill. Afterwards, celebrate the festival of lights with dancing and a sufganiyot (a jelly donut). The lighting of the 4000 lb. menorah begins tonight at 5:30 p.m. EST in New York City.
