What is a Sukkah?
A Sukkah is a temporary hut
constructed for use during the week-long Jewish festival of
Sukkot. It is topped with branches/reeds/leaves and often well
decorated with Judaic themes. During the festival of
Sukkot Jews eat, sleep and otherwise spend time in the Sukkah.
Sukkot is considered a joyous occasion but the Sukkah itself
symbolizes the frailty and transience of life and its dependence
on G-d.
 The first two days of Sukkot are full-fledged,
no-work-allowed holiday days. The subsequent days are Chol
Hamoed, when work is allowed, albeit with restrictions. The
final day of Sukkot is known as Hoshana Rabbah.
The holiday of Sukkot is immediately followed by the holiday
of Shemini Atzeret/Simchat Torah.
Celebrate the joyous festival of Sukkot with a Sukkah from
