Lag B’omer

From The Sicha Of Shabbos Emor 5750

Every year the citizen of Tzfas – indeed from all over Israel gather to celebrate the celebration of the passing of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai on Miron.

Tzfas is a center for Kabbalah, indeed the Ari Zal writes that they would go the Shabbos before and celebrate, the entire Shabbos there.
