Bukharian Jewish Customs
The Jews of Bukhara, in Central Asia, maintained their own rich customs of prayer, music, dress, and holiday celebration through centuries of relative isolation. Their traditions blend Persian-Sephardic liturgy with distinctive local color, and have traveled with Bukharian communities to Israel and around the world.
