| WHY GO |
| You'll find the modern metropolis of Tel Aviv nestled on Israel's Mediterranean coastline. When compared to the likes of Jerusalem - which has pavements steeped in history and buildings as beautiful as they are old - Tel Aviv could be viewed as something of an eyesore, but underneath the layers of concrete lies a city with a savvy attitude and cultural astuteness. Modern cultural forces are nurtured in Tel Aviv, and the impressive collections of modern art and pieces by alternative artists are a testament to its contemporary outlook. Entertainment, as expected of any modern city, is in abundance. Visitors can relax on the beach, dine in one of the many cafes and restaurants, or sample the wild nightlife for which Tel Aviv has become renowned. And, with Jerusalem a mere 45 minutes away and the historical town of Jaffa on your doorstep, there's always an opportunity for a historical fix, too. |
