    It is often believed that the best place to put a hanukkiyah (or Hanukkah Menorah) is on a windowsill.http://www.babaganewz.com/articles/top-eight-hanukkah-myths/ The best place to actually put a hanukkiyah is to the left of your front door. In modern day society, this is not done due to impracticality.

    Another myth is that candles should be burnt.http://www.babaganewz.com/articles/top-eight-hanukkah-myths/ This is inaccurate, as it is most symbolic to burn olive oil. Candles are often burnt in place of olive oil due to monetary restrictions.

    Yet another myth is that Hanukkah is the largest and most important holiday for Jews.http://www.babaganewz.com/articles/top-eight-hanukkah-myths/ This title could easily go to other Jewish holidays such as Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, or Pesach.
