The first time you come to Tel Aviv, you simply must see these sights:
White City - the name of this Tel Aviv landmark has become an unofficial nickname for the entire city. It refers to Tel Aviv's old neighborhoods, built back in the 1920s and 1950s in the Bauhaus ("international style") style.
The White City is characterized by medium-sized buildings (2-3 stories), light colors, and narrow windows (forced measures against extreme heat). It also features columns designed to allow the wind to flow under the houses, providing cooling. On a schematic of Tel Aviv with landmarks, this neighborhood stretches along Rothschild Boulevard.
Mediterranean Sea - does this Tel Aviv landmark need a detailed description? The city stretches along the coast - there are many different beaches (Nordau - with a special section for orthodox Jews, Gordon - in the very center, Ha-Tzuk - in the north of Tel Aviv, Tel Baruch, Frishman, Charles Clore, etc.).
Jaffa Port is one of the oldest landmarks on the map of the city of Tel Aviv. It was once the place where cedar from Lebanon was brought to build the first temple in Jerusalem! Centuries have passed, but the port has preserved its color - there are a lot of restaurants, a small market, selling ice cream with halva flavor and Dutch herring. There's a great view of the sea - you can take spectacular photos of Tel Aviv's waterfront at night.
Stone of Andromeda - a photo of this landmark of Tel Aviv is not recognized by everyone. After all, outwardly, a large stone in the coastal waters of Jaffa does not give itself away - meanwhile, according to legend, it was to it that the beautiful Andromeda was chained, sacrificed to the sea monster. Perseus saved the beauty by showing the monster the severed head of Medusa Gorgon, turning him to stone.
Shuk ha-Carmel - the name of this Tel Aviv landmark in Russian sounds like Carmel Market (the biggest in the city, and in the whole Israel!). It's located along Carmel Street in the Yemenite neighborhood - it has a tart smell of spices, fresh fruits and vegetables, cheeses and seafood.
