I took the above photo around Rosh HaShana but it is never too late for publishing it.

Special offer in Jerusalem's souvenir shops:

The long Yemenite Shofarot.

I haven't checked if the Shofarot on the photo are kosher. Some Japanese tourists walking along got so excited and couldn't stop taking pictures. However, the worst is when Gentile tourists buy a Shofar and then start blowing in very strange ways.

A Shofar not only for Rosh HaShana
