Azrieli Center Azrieli Center Review

Once you arrive to Tel Aviv you cant miss this two huge Buildings which named Azriely Center.
Most of the floors are actually offices but the lowest ones are all shopes, Gym, Cafe's restaurants, Huge SuperMarket etc'.
Also there are places to keep your kids busy with games.

On top of the Circled building there's a nice restaurant where you can have a great View all over Tel Aviv and the area ! If you dont wish to dine there you can only visit the observatory (there's an admission though) Or you can have just drinks in the Bar that watches the other side of the city.

Address: Derech Petach Tikva St.

Directions: Many Busses arrives from the central station to Azrieli. Also some of the Sherut Taxi's. And There's a train Stop just behind the Buildings as well.

Neve Tzedek Neighborhood Neve Tzedek Review

One of the most beautiful if not THE most beautiful neighborhoods in Tel Aviv.
It was built in the end of the 19th century as a Jewish quarter for the people who wanted to move out of Jaffa.
Today it is one of the most trendiest areas in Tel Aviv to live in and to hang out.
I LOVE being there, walking between the small alleys, looking at the colorful houses, windows, doors, Enjoying its nice small cafe's and the special atmosphere there.
Dont miss this place while you're in Tel Aviv !

Address: A south Tel Aviv Neighborhood

The Opera Tower Opera Tower Review

By the beach near Alenby St. you won't miss this place - the Opera Tower.
At the building entrance floor you can find shopes and cafe's / restaurant. Nothing too special just located in a good point where you cross the road and there you are on the beach..

Address: Herbert Samuel St. (The promenad st.)

Nachlat Benjamin Nachlat Benjamin Review

Nachlat benjamin is a street that has been closed for any cars or public transportation.
Each Tue and Fri 10:00-17:00 there's sort of an arts/handicraft bazaar, with an exceptional concentration of creativity and originality.
There are also Some nice cafe's a nd restaurants around to relax (if you'll be lucky to find a free table) and the whole atmosphere is nice. After you're done with it (if its not too late or maybe before you start with it) you can check whats going on in Sheinkin St. which is just near by, also there its pretty nice on Friday although not in the same way.

Address: Nachlat Benjamin Street

The area of the port is very old one and very nice to visit. You'll find old houses by new ones or renovated ones. Some restaurants, Mosques and Churches as well.
In the middle of the week this place is really relaxed and nice, during weekends you might find it a bit crowded.

The Clock Tower Old Jaffa Review

If you'll arrive to Old Jaffa you won't miss it, its just at the entry to Jaffa from Tel Aviv Direction (Northern Entrance).
The clock tower was erected in the plaza between the "saraya" palace and the "kishleh" prison, next to the Great Mosque, the Mosque of Mahmudiyyeh. The cornerstone was laid on 1.9.1900, on the occasion of the 25th year of the Sultan's rule. Two stories were completed by 1901, and the tower was dedicated in late 1903-early 1904.

One of the most or maybe the most beautiful of the chrchus in Old Jaffa.

The Beaches Tel Aviv Beaches Review

One thing is sure, impossible to be in Tel Aviv and miss its great beaches. where ever you'll stay in TA it will be close to the beach .... so no chance of missing it.

One thing is sure walking on the beach or even just sitting in the afternoon / evening time is a great thing.
