Question

I want to leave the house immediately after the time of lighting Hanukkah candles. Where should I light them?

Answer

One who lights at home on weekdays and wishes to leave immediately after lighting to visit parents or a guest house, etc., it suffices to light at home. [And if lighting outside, there is no need to stay at home after lighting], and there is no need to light again upon arriving at the new location.
