Israel Tel Aviv District Tel Aviv-Yafo
Old City
Historic quarter within Israel's vibrant coastal metropolis, renowned for its ancient port, labyrinthine alleys, and rich cultural tapestry.
Tips from the community
Jaffa (or, Yafo) is the old port city from which Tel Aviv has grown. The Jaffa flea market is a must-visit, with vendors selling a diverse range of unique and local products. Meanwhile, enjoy winding through the narrow passageways and ancient buildings in the Old City of Jaffa (which are worlds away from modern Tel Aviv).
Pro tip: Hit the Jaffa Port and Jaffa Port Market for stunning views, a slice of history (it’s still used today by fishermen), and a bite to eat.
