ISRAEL MINISTRY OF TOURISM RELAUNCHES CHANUKAH WEBSITE Website visitors can light candles, learn about Israel and win free trips

To mark the upcoming Chanukah holiday, which begins on the evening of December 1, the Israel Ministry of Tourism is relaunching its popular Chanukah microsite which first launched in 2009, where visitors can log on and light virtual candles for each night of the eight-day holiday, also known as the "Festival of Lights." The site was developed last year to gauge the interest of online users. The site was an overwhelming hit and has been expanded in 2010. The Chanukah website was developed in cooperation with the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations and will go live atwww.goisrael.com/Chanukah on December 1, 2010.
