Just like nice things to look at, pass the time? Go there. Like beautiful buildings? Walk there. Like a great variety of architectural styles, where each house "must" differ from the next one?‏‏‏‏ This is the place. Enjoy Bauhaus? Here it is. Like a walk through the history of Tel-Aviv and the development of architectural styles? Take a guide or... More

If you like Bauhaus - then this is the place to go to! It´s not only a white city, it´s also very green with all its trees!

Tel Aviv has everything for anyone. From the old to the modern. Traditional and hip restaurants. Beaches, Museums,...Since I have been here many times, I just walked around and soaked up the sites.

Tel Aviv is great for walking around and site seeing. Visit Rothschild Boulevard and look up - all of the renovated buildings are beautiful. Lots of great little cafes and restaurants - also on the side streets. Or rent a city bike and tour on the bike trails.

The Rotchild Boulevard is a great place for a walk to admire beautful buildings in Bauhuas style. I recommend to take a free guided tour every Saturday at 11 am that starts at the corner of Shadal Str and Rotchild Ave. The whole White City is on World Heritage Unesco list.

Walk in the downtown neighborhoods surrounding Rothschild Boulevard. On Sundays, a free, two-hour walk sponsored by the City (remember to tip your guide at the end - at least 20 shekels) covers all of the major sites of architectural renown, plus stories which explain what had been done when Belgian-influenced architects built in Bauhaus-style and how modern-day developers are working...

I liked the laid back attitude, but be prepared for a lot of noise. The city never sleeps, and there is always something to do. Be careful on Friday's for a lot of the cops and military practice the Sabbath and aren't around. The University gives the area a prep and there's a liberal vibration in the air.

The guide was interesting, knowledgable, and engaging. We learned history through architecture as we walked the neighborhoods.

Took the Bauhaus Center walk of the modernist and White City architectural movement and buldings. The architecture in the heart of Tel Aviv is beautiful, unique and the tour is worth the time

reminded me of San Francisco in the human-scaled buildings, grid-like well planned streets, tree shaded and green but in an urban area . a must if you appreciate architecture, a joy if you want to experience the "real city"
