Hundreds of people attended the great menorah lighting in the city of Amsterdam on the Dam Square in front of the Royal Palace. 

The lighting was organized by Shliach Rabbi Menachem Evers and attended by a number of dignitaries such as the vice mayor of Amsterdam Simone Kukenheim and the Israeli Ambassador to the Netherlands Naor Gilon.

A group of bochrim from Yeshiva in Brunoy came to do mivtzoim in the city, and helped make the event a real lebbedik Chanukah celebration.
