Neve Tzedek: Neve Tzedek Neighborhood
  • Tip Rating:
  • 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 !

    Old Jaffa: Yaffo (Old Jaffa)
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you are in Tel Aviv take a bus or a taxi and visit Old Jaffa (Yaffo as we call it).

    Jaffa is an old part of Tel Aviv and mostly populated with Arabs but also mixed with Jewish and Christians. You can see some old church's & mosques, Lots of Arab restaurants and sea food restaurants aside some very unique Israeli restaurants.
    Many of the old houses there are now renovated at this days and its very nice place to visit at night.
    Old Jaffa is also a home for many artists whom are living there and you will find many galleries which you can visit (and buy).
    There are organized tours that leaves from Tel Aviv, in this tours you can hear & see all about the History and the beauty of the place.

  • 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.

    Nachlat Benjamin: Nachlat Benjamin
  • Tip Rating:
  • 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.

    Tel Aviv Beaches: The Beaches
  • Tip Rating:
  • 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.

    You have many Cafe's and Bars on the beach's that are open both day and night time. some of the beaches has music and some are more relaxed.

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

  • A lovely small flea market out in the small old streets of Jaffa. Very colorful, Lots of old special things to buy aside some new stuff.

  • Inside the church
  • by Sharon
  • Send Photo to a Friend
  • One of the most or maybe the most beautiful of the chrchus in Old Jaffa.
    This is a Roman Catholic CHurch, situated on the hill above the old port of Jaffa.
    I must admit i went it and enjoyed sitting inside, it felt so relaxing being there... and the Christmas trees and angels were still litten.. that made it even much more nice !

    The Church is open:
    08:00 - 11:45 and 15:00 - 17:00 everyday
    There are English, Spanish, Italian, German and Polish mass there depends on the days.

     I fully agree with Sahron. Good food nice service. Sometimes not all wine on the list is available.Choose a room in the back if you like more privacy fornt area sometime noisy.
