Question

I have seen that Hanukkah candles are not lit at a height greater than 20 cubits, and beyond that, one does not fulfill the obligation. What is the measurement of twenty cubits in meters?

Answer

The measurement is 11.56 meters, and some say 9.60 meters. [If it is necessary to light at a higher place, place colorful lights that attract attention].
