Life of Mountain Jews in Azerbaijan

Portrait of a Rabbi praying during Mincha service in the Six-domed Synagogue in Qırmızı Qəsəbə, or Red Town, Quba district of Azerbaijan on 28 September 2016. Qırmızı Qəsəbə is a biggest compact settlement of the Mountain Jews in the world. The population of the Town is near 4 thousand people. Residents of the Red Town work and live mostly in Moscow. They build or renovate houses and residences and spend in the town summer vacations. People also use to come back to the Qırmızı Qəsəbə when one of the relatives die. They visit a Synagogue every day for special prayer. ( (Photo by Oleksandr Rupeta/NurPhoto))
