Old City

4.8
4.6/5
202 reviews
Jaffa Old City, located south of Tel Aviv on the Mediterranean coast, is an ancient city with thousands of years of history and a landmark of Tel Aviv. The Bible mentions that the timber used to build the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem was transported from here. Looking south from the Tel Aviv seaside, you'll see small hills surrounded by houses, topped with a clock tower – that's Jaffa Old City. The Old City is now mostly home to artists' residences, studios, and art shops. It has also become a symbol of the 12 zodiac signs, with fountains named after each sign, alleyways named after them, and wishing bridges for each sign. It's said that if you find your sign's relief on the bridge, gently touch it, face the sea, and make a wish, it will come true. Unfortunately, the wishing bridges are now closed due to disrepair. Wander through the intricate alleyways, along the cobblestone streets that record a thousand years of history, finding your own alleyway. Don't worry about getting lost; every corner holds a surprise. Perhaps you'll even find that orange tree hanging from a large rock somewhere. In the heart of the Old City is a square with a visitor center where you can get a free map of Jaffa. Below the visitor center is a small museum showcasing the city's history through artifacts and a 4D film. From the hilltop overlooking the Old City, you can enjoy stunning views of Tel Aviv and the Mediterranean Sea. Adjacent to Jaffa's Old City stands the 100-year-old Turkish Clock Tower. The Old City lies along the ancient harbor, now mostly filled with private yachts. Every morning, many people gather at the harbor to await the fishermen's freshest catch. Along the harbor are several seafood restaurants and some free art galleries—explore them; you're sure to find something delightful.Tel Aviv · 4.2km from downtown

We took the kids to a nature camp in the countryside to make insect specimens. Our guide was a natural science student who knelt down and helped the kids find ladybugs and catch butterflies. He explained things vividly and in an easy-to-understand way, and he never rushed us. He could spend half an hour with the kids watching ants in the grass. The finished specimens could be packed up and taken home. The kids keep them on their desks every day, and the impression is much deeper than just looking at insects in a book. It's a great value to have a fun day and learn something new.
