Greetings everyone! Since the day I bought the ticket, my trip to Israel has attracted a lot of attention.. I think it’s the reservations, the unknowns and the political turmoil that make this country different..
I have decided to write my travel notes in Tel Aviv , without leaving you wondering too much. While witnessing today’s Israel on this trip I took just a few weeks ago, you will be the guest of my adventure-filled journey, now the journey is to Tel Aviv !
Tel Aviv Overview / Coastline
How to Go to Tel-Aviv?
Monday, February 12. On a cool day in Istanbul, where everyone goes to work and school, I’m going to Sabiha Gökçen Airport to get on my plane that will take me to Israel.
My flight leaves at 13.50.. Direct flights are the only option to reach Israel from Turkey.. Fortunately, there are many more flights between these two countries than you might think!
I will be reaching Tel Aviv with Pegasus today. Turkish Airlines and Atlas Global organize flights to Tel Aviv. There are even scheduled flights from Antalya.. Prices are reasonable in my opinion.. Considering the interest that may increase after this article, maybe it’s your last chance
Getting On The Plane That Will Take Me To Israel
After passport control, I go to the relevant gate from the flight screens, what is that? An extra check is made just for our flight. I’ve only come across this type of control on flights to the USA before.. At the meeting room before boarding the plane, my visa and passport are looked at again and my bag is searched thoroughly!
Fortunately, we are in Turkey I am ready to board the plane after this short routine routine for everyone.. There are no delays, we take off for Tel Aviv in half an hour.
The distance I will travel today is about 1100 kilometers southeast.. If you sit on the left side like me, you can clearly see Antalya and Cyprus Island throughout the flight.
My Flight to Tel Aviv
Information About Israel
Now I want to give you information about Israel and Tel Aviv. Israel is an important state in the Middle East. Its borders are determined by Lebanon and Syria in the north, Egypt in the south, and Jordan in the east.. The part with Palestine and the West Bank is a bit of a mess. Their capital is Jerusalem, according to them, and Tel Aviv as the world accepts.
Today’s State of Israel is the 19th century of Jews.. It was established in 1948 as a result of many wars after attempts that started in the middle of the century.. Hebrew is spoken in the country with a population of 8 million, and its alphabet is different from ours.
Israel can be said to be the most economically developed country in the Middle East. National income per capita is almost three times that of our country.. The most important item in the country’s trade is the diamond sector.

Where Is Tel Aviv?
Tel Aviv-Yafo or Tel Aviv, commercially and socio-culturally Israel’s most important city. Located on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean. The metropolis has a population of more than 3 million.. Tel Aviv with its warm climate and wide beaches all year round is one of the most striking cities of this region.
After this information, I return to my Israel journey After an hour and a half black appeared in the distance! As I approach Tel Aviv, the tall buildings lined up in a row on the coastline catch my attention, and the city’s orderly structure is striking.
Tel Aviv Beaches / Photo I Take From an Airplane / Regular City Plan
Ben Gurion Airport
We are landing at Tel Aviv Ben Gurion Airport.. This is Israel’s gateway to the world. From British Airways’ huge A380 to United Airlines’ 747, it’s possible to see airlines from all over the world here.
I’m leaving the plane, the view is amazing! The interior design of Ben Gurion Airport is really nice, I will talk about it as a touristic spot The giant pillars of wonderland are enormous.
When Landing at Ben Gurion Airport
Passport on Entry to Israel Control
I came to the hall where passport control is done. Everyone is afraid of passport control at the entrance to Israel I think. The articles I read before I came here created such a perception in me that I wouldn’t be surprised to be questioned for half an hour in a private room!
Considering the Turkey-Israel relations, which have become more strained with the recent Jerusalem crisis, I am a little hesitant. next to the officer.
Modern Interior Design of Ben Gurion Airport
The officer I greeted and handed me my passport, hands me my passport and entrance card after only 10-15 seconds. Without asking any questions! It’s as if my Turkish Passport, which has been questioned recently even when entering Ukraine, got a priority entry here
Actually, this must have been what I expected to happen, I was filled with so much prejudice that I was surprised by it.. Maybe I will say that I am very lucky, but I did not perceive a different situation in the control room from other countries.. It’s the same with Israel as we enter Italy and Singapore, there’s nothing to be afraid of!
The Pillars of the Terminal I’ve Mentioned
Is There a Visa to Israel?
When entering Israel the officer does not stamp your passport. You are taken in with a photo and a card on which you can stay in Israel. Do not lose this card, of course, but no one asked me on the way out.
We went to Israel and you will say, do you have a visa to this country? For short-term visits to Israel, you need a tourist visa, but fear not.. Israel Visa free. I’d say it’s just paperwork. Official passport holders like me are exempt from visa for up to 90 days, just buy your ticket and board the plane.
How to Get an Israel Visa ?
Card Issued at Entry to Israel
I withdraw money without leaving the terminal. This is always asked of me, I don’t think you have to deal with foreign exchange offices at all, withdraw money from your cash card, it’s more economical and effortless!
New Israeli Shekel has Turkish Lira almost the same rate. 10 shekels is 11 liras, it will be very easy to calculate money in the city
New Israeli Shekels I Take at the Airport
Ben Gurion Airport – Tel Aviv Transportation
Ben Gurion Airport, Tel Aviv’s 10 located about a kilometer east of. There are bus and train options to reach the city.. If you go up one floor outside the terminal, you will come to the part where the buses depart.. It is very easy to find out which bus goes to where with the electronic screens here.
I think the best way to reach Tel Aviv from the airport is trains. This is the one that works until late. You can arrive at Tel Aviv Savidor Center Station for 13.5 shekels by train. Those who want to go directly to Jerusalem should use the bus numbered 485, the fee is 16 shekels and it takes 1 hour in total.
I will go to Jerusalem from the airport as per my route.. In order not to interfere with my general impressions of Israel, I will share my Jerusalem travel notes with you in a separate article. Now I am starting to explore the city by continuing from the moment I passed to Tel Aviv!

Jerusalem to Tel Aviv
Tuesday, 13 February. On the day I woke up early, it was time to travel to Tel Aviv after visiting the remaining places in Jerusalem.. To get from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv, you need to use buses 405 and 480.. Both depart from the Jerusalem Central Bus Terminal.. I take bus 405 to Tel Aviv Bus Terminal in the south of the city.. The amount I paid for this trip is 18 shekels.
The road from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv is quite modern and wide, and the cars in Israel are also the latest models. A pleasant sight along the way. there is, I’m at the front of the bus !
After an hour’s drive, Tel Aviv’s tall skyscrapers are on the horizon. After the rainy weather in Jerusalem, The sun can now be seen with the last drops at the entrance to Tel Aviv, I have a wonderful view.
After entering the city, a traffic similar to Istanbul greets me, luckily, we reach the last stop without wasting too much time since we went to the terminal in the south of the city.
My Journey from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv Central Bus Station
Tel Aviv Central Bus Terminal is not as big as the ones in our country. After getting off the bus, you go through an x-ray immediately.. There is always a check and x-ray when entering a public area in Israel. This is a country where security is kept at the highest level.
The lower floors of the terminal are like a shopping mall, you can find all your needs here. There are stores that you can afford, and it doesn’t remind us of the old office buildings.
X-Ray Line at the Terminal Entrance
Places to Visit in Tel Aviv
I’m going up Levinski Street, I’ll walk straight to my hostel on the beach. There’s a palpable heat outside. After 15-16 degrees in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv is above 20 degrees and sunny in places. Even my thin jacket is too much!
I start walking, my first impression of Tel Aviv is right here. is a Mediterranean city. Homes with several floors and streets adorned with palm trees warm my heart immediately.
The various houses that I come across as I progress attract my attention.. On one side of me are shabby buildings reminiscent of Africa, on the other side there are summer houses that seem to have come from Los Angeles. It’s no surprise to see the high-rise residential buildings rising in between.
Levinski Street / My First Minutes
Rothschild Boulevard
I continue towards the beach by crossing Allenby Street. The inner parts of the city seem more crowded and modern. The street also intersects with Rothschild Boulevard, one of the living spots of the city.
Rothschild is a lovely street that runs through the Lev Halr district of the city.. In the middle is a pedestrian path in the concept of “walking path” in Izmit. Lots of cafes and shops around. I am sure that walking here will be a touristic activity.
Rothschild Boulevard
Great Synagogue Tel Aviv
After I proceed a little further, I return to Allenby on my route and arrive at the first point I want to see in the city, the Great Synagogue of Tel Aviv. Synagogue.
One of the most important religious points of the city, like the name Great Synagogue. I can say that it looks more like a library building from the outside.. The interior is simpler.. Already Synagogues have a simpler structure compared to mosques and churches. While you’re here, I recommend you take a look inside, we don’t come across a synagogue everywhere.
Tel Aviv’s Great Synagogue
Tel Aviv Shoreline
From the synagogue, the city looks like a holiday resort, At the end of the road is the Mediterranean. I saw it on the plane but then it disappeared all of a sudden, I’m excited to go to the beach.
Finally, I’m alone with the Mediterranean, this sea that gives life to Tel Aviv! The city’s coastline is really worth a visit. The long sandy beach, palm trees and summer houses accompanying the clean and wide avenue complete a wonderful picture.
I See the Mediterranean at Last
Sunset in Tel Aviv
I must be lucky it’s just sunset time. I said this is the easternmost part of the Mediterranean.. So for the sun that will set in the west, you only have the sea on your horizon, this is not something you can find anywhere.
I’m on my way to my hostel with the sun setting over the Mediterranean.. My hostel is only 100 meters from here Do you think I can come to Tel Aviv and stay away from the beach? I chose Crown Sea Hostel. I will pay $18 USD per night. It can be said that it is expensive compared to the Middle East, but it is not a bad price for Israel.
The View Point at Jerusalem Beach
Where to Stay in Tel Aviv?
There are many options for accommodation in Tel Aviv. This is a city that hosts world-class meetings and organizations.. There are many hotels and rental houses. It is possible to see all of the world-famous hotel chains on the beach.. But think of prices like Northern Europe. As for the location, like me, I suggest you choose places close to the beach.
My hostel has a small garden overlooking the sea.. Made me feel like sitting in the garden of my summer house in August. With a few drinks I chat with the people staying at the hostel, almost everyone is European.
I stayed at the Crown Sea Hostel
I asked Christina who is from Germany why Tel Aviv? It was an interesting destination for him as well as me.. He said that’s what caught his attention anyway, he also had Jerusalem and Beer Sheva on his route.
When I start the day by waking up at 6 am in Jerusalem, it should be normal for me to get sleepy around 8-9pm.. Now I’m going to have a good sleep and explore the remaining places in Tel Aviv tomorrow.
Sunset in Tel Aviv
Wednesday, February 14th. Today is Valentine’s Day! My passion is traveling and that’s exactly what I do.. I woke up at 8 o’clock with the sun hitting the window of the room.
I didn’t know there was breakfast in the hostel.. Even though I didn’t ask her name, a smiling employee invites me to breakfast.. I didn’t expect much, but their breakfast is seriously like ours.
I have a nice breakfast in the garden with a small salad, green olives, cheese and eggs. There is also a accompanying tea.. It is very important to start the day such a light and nutritious one. It will be a long and tiring day.
My Breakfast at the Hostel
Can you swim in Tel Aviv?
After breakfast the first thing I do is put on my swimsuit, get my air and go to the beach. Yes, today is February 14th and I’m going to the sea Don’t think I’m going to shiver from the cold like that.. The air is 25 degrees, the sea water temperature is 21 degrees. Think about it when the sun hits at such southern latitudes.
It would be a great loss to come to Tel Aviv and not swim in the sea.. This is a place at the forefront with its beaches and sea tourism.. The place with the only ocean-like beach I’ve ever seen in the Mediterranean it’s true.
On the way to Jerusalem Beach
Tel Aviv Beaches
Tel Aviv has many beaches where you can swim.. Chief among these are Jerusalem, that is, Jerusalem Beach and Bograshov.. Since these beaches are in the busiest parts of the city, they have a more beautiful environment.
Gordon and Frishman beaches in the north of the city are mostly in the section where luxury hotels are located, so beach activities are more frequent.. Banana Beach in the south is more suitable for surfers.
A Few Minutes After Entering the Sea / Tel Aviv
Jerusalem Beach – Jerusalem Beach
I am at Jerusalem Beach near my hostel. The beach in daylight is another. The golden sand is truly fascinating. So thin that you won’t be able to say no to sunbathing for hours here.
The beach is wider than you would expect. For those who know, I can say it’s a real Santa Monica.. With watchtowers, beach cafes and viewing points, everything is ok.
Jerusalem Beach and Tel Aviv Beach
I immerse myself in the Mediterranean without wasting time. Since it is early in the morning, there are not many people who go to the sea.. The sea is quite warm and swimming is really enjoyable.. It is better to play with the waves than to swim in the sea The water is shallow but the waves are huge.
When I get out of the sea, I take a shower right away. Tel Aviv beaches have all kinds of services. Shower areas, changing cabins, large sun tents, gym equipment and wash basins, everything is free, even wifi!
Jerusalem Beach and Mediterranean Waters
City Transportation in Tel Aviv
After some refreshment, I go to the hostel, change and set off to visit Tel Aviv.. Got Old Jaffa on my route. This is the southernmost point of the city.. I think walking for transportation is the best.
Speaking of transportation, I wanted to open it.. Tel Aviv is not a city built on such a large area.. The farthest distance you can go is 5-6 kilometers. This is easy to walk around in nice weather.
The Pleasant Coastal Trail Towards Old Jaffa
Hiring a Bike in Tel Aviv
But there is a sweeter alternative, Tel Aviv’s city bikes. Cycling is very common in Tel Aviv.. The city is almost flat and there are bike paths. You can rent bicycles from machines at all points in the center.
To rent a bicycle, you must first pay a daily usage fee of 17 shekels.. Then Your use is always free for up to 30 minutes. As the duration increases, additional fees may apply, I think it’s reasonable.
City Bikes You Can Rent
Buses are another option in Tel Aviv.. Since the roads are wide and single lane, it is not difficult to understand where they are going.. Their fee is up to 5-6 shekels. Expensive for continuous use, but can be used several times.
I start walking south from the beach.. There is a pleasant walking path and parks up to Old Jaffa. This place is ideal for taking lots of pictures.. Great to watch people surfing in the sea on my right !
Heading towards Old Jaffa / At the End Behind Jaffa Harbor
Old Jaffa District
Finally I arrive in Old Jaffa. This is Tel Aviv’s oldest point. This port and region, whose history dates back to 7500 BC, has also been the subject of various mythological stories is one of the oldest regions in the world.. 16. century under Ottoman rule.
20. The old city, which was in the middle of political problems until the middle of the century, was merged with Tel Aviv in 1950.. After this date, the name of the city is called Tel Aviv Yafo.
Old Jaffa District
Al-Bahr Mosque
Old Jaffa is a spot that bears traces of all kinds of societies. When I started to travel, the call to prayer took me to the Ottoman days. A few minutes after this experience, I witnessed the sound of a church bell.
Al-Bahr Mosque, where I heard the call to prayer.. This mosque is 16. It was built in the Ottoman period in the 19th century.. He will appear first at the entrance to Jaffa.. You can easily spot it with its minaret and Arabic inscriptions at the entrance.
Al-Bahr Mosque
Traces of the Ottoman Empire in Israel
I mentioned that Jaffa is an old port. Right at the entrance, a customs house from the Ottoman Empire is among the things you can see as historical.
I wander around the harbor, the architecture in this region bears traces of transition between Africa and the Middle East. Sand-colored buildings line the narrow stone streets. I’m stepping in from a break I see.
Ottoman Wall in Old Jaffa
Art Galleries of Jaffa
You can wander among these historical buildings in Old Jaffa as you wish.. I’m sure you’ll come across art galleries first.
Today, you can come across dozens of boutique art galleries in these narrow streets in Jaffa. There are so many of them that I’m sure you’ll want to visit one of them and examine the paintings and works.. The works combined with the atmosphere of the surrounding will enchant you.
I am determined to go up the hill from the side streets.. The palm trees and houses with blue glass rising up from the stairs are stunning, the weather is kind to me today, I regret not walking in my shorts !
Art Galleries in Narrow Streets
Abrasha Park and Wishing Bridge
<
I’m going up to Abrasha Park at the top of Jaffa. There is an excellent view of Tel Aviv here. Just take a snack and watch the city from the park. That’s how I do it, my sandwiches I brought from Istanbul are still fresh
The most famous members of the park are Wishing Bridge and St.. Peters Church, luckily I was able to capture both in one frame.. You can also see fish figures on the bridge. You will also immediately notice the white Egyptian Monument at the top of the park.
Wishing Bridge and St.. Peters Church
Jaffa Harbor and Clock Tower
I descend to harbor level again. There are nice restaurants and lovely boats here.. While walking, I continue to examine the historical texture thoroughly.
The last place I will visit in Jaffa is the Jaffa Clock Tower from the Ottoman Period.. The building was one of the 7 clock towers that the Ottomans had built in this region. >That’s all I’ll tell you in Jaffa, kthere are dozens of other beauties you can explore, I leave it to you Now it’s time to walk towards the city center. Yes, I will walk again, but a little inland !
As I head north from Old Jaffa, the first thing I come across is high, modern hotels. Then I arrive at more peaceful areas.. I find a beautiful house decorated with pleasure in these streets and take a picture of it.
A Nice Boat in Jaffa Harbor
Carmel Market
A few streets away in Tel Aviv there is a must see place; Carmel Market.
There’s no need to dress up like that, this is a street market. It may sound different to Europeans, but it is quite familiar to us You can find anything from clothes to food in the market.
Since the market has gained a touristic meaning, you can also find souvenir shops.. I had my eye on a few fruits I bought half a kilo of bananas and some strawberries for 5 shekels a kilo. In such a weather, fruit is the best option.
Carmel Market
White City – White Houses
You arrive at a small square at the end of Carmel Market.. There are chairs to sit and relax here Along with the square, you can also observe the White Houses that are identified with Tel Aviv.
White City, with its original name, is Tel Aviv’s Bauhaus with architecture. It includes elegant houses built. These houses, designed by German architects who left their country and came here after the Nazis gained power, are the most characteristic members of this style.
The White City includes Dizengoff Center and its surroundings, which can be called the center of Tel Aviv. 4000 buildings in this area have been protected and registered by UNESCO.
The White City’s Beginning Point and A Few Houses / The Chairs I Mentioned
Dizengoff Center – Shopping in Tel Aviv
Continue walking north. I’ve already arrived at Dizengoff Center while exploring the White Houses. This is the city’s largest shopping complex. Inside, you can find everything for shopping in Israel.
Dizengoff spans both ends of a street in two parts.. As it has become widespread in our country lately, there is also a high residence on the shopping center.
My time is approaching evening.. I want to relax a little at the beach with the warming weather. Close to Jerusalem Beach, I buy a few things from the market and go to the beach.
One of the Characteristic White Houses / Taken from @Sizedoesntmatter
The beach is much more lively than my morning impression! It has a very colorful atmosphere for those who go to the sea, those who do various sports and those who watch the sea like me.. A short time later, the sun comes right over the sea.. This time, even a more beautiful view, the sun is setting.
The atmosphere of the city does not deteriorate much with the darkening of the air, in fact, I am walking from the coast to the north of the city.. Beach volleyball continues regardless of the dark! But as it progressed, it got a little secluded. Although my plan is actually to see the Old Tel Aviv Harbor at the far end, I decide to set out on the way back.
Second Sunset in Tel Aviv
Tel Aviv with Tall Buildings
From Arlozorov Street to the east Continuing towards Savidor Center Station. The decent atmosphere on the street does not escape my attention. Even on weekdays and evenings, there are even joggers.
Towards the end of the street, lighted skyscrapers. Tel Aviv has a fascinating view in the evenings, it can be called the financial district of the city.
Tall Buildings in the East of the City
Savidor Center Station, where I am located, is next to Tel Aviv 2000 Bus Terminal.. You can reach Jerusalem from the bus terminal here. This is the destination of the other bus numbered 480, which I mentioned at the beginning of the article, in Tel Aviv.
In this way, I complete the places to visit in Tel Aviv.. I will go to Ben Gurion Airport from Savidor Center by train, from there my flight to Istanbul in the morning.. This is how my adventure in Israel ended. Now I will talk about what I would like to add about the city.
When Going to Savidor Center Train Station / Airport
Why Go to Tel Aviv?
To sum up, Tel Aviv is a beautiful city that has become one of my favorite cities. point. Yes, there are not dozens of places to visit, but the atmosphere of this city is worth seeing.
You can come to Tel Aviv to have a different experience.. This is an important holiday spot with its beaches.. You can also break your prejudices about Israel.
One of the Must-See Jaffa Streets
Israelis View of Turks
Speaking of prejudices, I must mention the Israelis. Whoever I saw in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv were so cheerful and optimistic that they surprised me.
Even though it is a country where we have problems politically, we don’t actually have a problem with Israelis and Jews. Biker, this is a country where azan can be read publicly! Being a Muslim is not a problem here, they are very respectful towards us.
I think it’s also enjoyable to be Turkish in Israel. People don’t have a negative opinion of us. You are already aware of the Jewish population in Istanbul.. We have an intertwined cultural relationship with them.. Almost half of the people on the plane that brought me to Tel Aviv from Istanbul were Israelis living in Turkey, who could speak Turkish.
The Cute House That caught my attention on the way to Carmel Market
Is Israel Safe?
So, will something happen to us in Israel? I guess this was something I even questioned when buying tickets.. I can confidently tell you that this is a country of European standards. It is true that they have high-level security measures due to their location, but Tel Aviv’s report on crime rates and terrorism is better than many European cities, for sure.
Nothing in the 3 days I spent in Israel. I didn’t experience anything negative.. In fact, the scary-looking Israeli Soldiers, who sometimes stand guard on the streets, even pose with the tourists!
Streets That Are Decent Even When It’s Lonely In The Evening
Is Tel Aviv Expensive?
And Israel It is necessary to open the economy of being a tourist in. This is clearly an expensive country.. Most things at least 3 times more expensive than Turkey. You have to sacrifice 100 liras in restaurants for a meal.. Be prepared to spend 3-4 liras for a simple half liter of water, even in the market.
I already told you that their national income is many times higher than ours at the beginning of the article.. A meticulous travel plan is essential when you come to Israel if you do not have a serious financial burden.
Water I Have Paid More Than Five Liras
How Many Days To Visit Tel Aviv ?
My trip may seem a bit short to you, but it’s not quite. In my opinion, one full day is enough to visit Tel Aviv.. There is no limit to those who say I am going to have a sea vacation here!
Those who have plenty of time in Tel Aviv can head to the museums.. During the days I visited, the weather was so beautiful that I couldn’t close myself to the buildings Eretz, Art and Bauhaus Museums are the places I recommend to go.
With Old Jaffa and the Mediterranean
/ Tel Aviv, Israel
Tel Aviv at night There are those who want to come to Tel Aviv and have fun.. I didn’t have much opportunity to travel this time, so I spent my time with my friends in the hostel.. Tel Aviv is a city rich in nightlife.
In the active season that starts with the spring months, especially the beach and its surroundings are very active. Pub-style bars next to the beaches were not empty during my stay.
Other than that, there are dozens of venues on Allenby Street, where I was when I first came to Tel Aviv.. About the prices let me warn you again, alcohol is not cheap in Israel. Beer prices in the markets vary between 7-10 TL, heavy alcohols are relatively more affordable.
Restaurant – Bar by Jerusalem Beach <
When to go to Tel Aviv ?
You went to Tel Aviv in February, when should we go? It’s hard to give a date here because it’s a hot city all year.. In fact, I know that you saw the 30s degrees a week before the days I visited.
It is hot in our country in summer, and I think in winter, come here so that it will put you in a different atmosphere, and walking around in such hot weather is also torture. this is even 300 kilometers south of Cyprus.
A Photo Representing the Summer Atmosphere of the City
What to Eat in Israel?
You in Israel for three days What did you eat, what did you drink? In fact, it’s one of the few countries where I haven’t eaten properly.. I don’t usually eat out in places that don’t suit my taste, but the main reason here is the prices.
Because I was prepared in advance, I brought a lot of sandwiches and pastries with me.. During the days I spent in Jerusalem, there was already breakfast and dinner at the hostel. In Tel Aviv, I enriched the sandwiches with fruits and vegetables and fed them in a quality way. You already know my breakfast
Maybe you want to travel more luxuriously.. Buffet style restaurants are quite common in the city.. You can have a meal for 30-40 liras here.. Forget 100 liras in places with service !

Places to Visit Around Tel Aviv
We came to Tel Aviv What more should we see in this region?. Israel Jerusalem is the most important city you should include on your itinerary, that’s another one! You already know that all three major religions consider it holy, and add dozens of historical beauties to this, here is a perfect city for you.
Israel Unfortunately, it does not have very good relations with its northern neighbor, Lebanon.. To reach Beirut, which is a few hundred kilometers away, it makes more sense to go back to our country

How to Get From Israel to Palestine?
<
Actually, the most curious to go to Palestine and Gaza. Even though I was in Jerusalem within the borders of Palestine, I could not go to Gaza and other regions, this is only because I have limited time.. Currently, Palestine has calmed down a bit.
Palestine consists of two separate landmasses.. West Bank covering part of Jerusalem is a safer and larger region. The situation in Gaza, in the south, is a bit complicated.. There is no direct route to both. It is not possible to cross into Palestine by renting a car from Israel.
In the Pleasant Streets of Old Jaffa / Tel Aviv
Your only alternative on this route is small tour companies and minibuses departing from Jerusalem. I can’t give you clear information on this subject because there is a system that changes day by day. I will talk more about Palestine in my Jerusalem article anyway.
That’s all for now from California of the Middle East. I tried to convey my general impressions of Israel in the article.. II will complete my travel notes in Jerusalem in the coming days, I recommend you to read it in advance, stay with love!
