Art and Culture in Tel Aviv

Tel Aviv travel guide

Tel-Aviv is Israel’s cultural capital, holding its finest museums, orchestras, theaters, and art galleries, and presenting its greatest dance and music performances.

Modern Art at Ha’medina Square

The two highlights in the city’s art scene, are the Diaspora Museum and the Tel-Aviv Museum of Art, while other exclusive galleries are spread around Gordon St neighborhood, and are worth paying a special visit. Not far from there, just up Dizengoff St, is a cultural complex, which comprises the Israeli National Theater – Habima, and the Mann Auditorium, the home of the world-renowned Israel Philharmonic Orchestra.

The Performing Art Center

Another cultural zone, located near the Tel-Aviv Museum of Art, is the Tel-Aviv Performing Art Center. This beautifully architectural building is a home for the New Israeli Opera, featuring concerts, dance performances, music ensembles, and unique exhibitions at the lobby.

Nachalat Binyamin pedestrian walkway

The Nachalat Binyamin pedestrian walkway holds a festival of arts, crafts and street performances every Tuesday and Friday between 10AM and 5PM. You can find there quite a selection of toys, jewelry and Judaica items, painted ceramics and different articles, souvenirs and gifts. Besides the craft stands, many artists, including musicians, theater actors, fortune tellers and others, perform street acts during these hours, so even if you are not in a shopping mood, you might still have fun visiting there, especially on Friday afternoons. The Nachalat Binyamin pedestrian walkway is a fun place to visit on other weekdays as well. You can catch a light bite to eat at one of the cafés, shop in some of the many textile shops or visit one of the finer restaurants. Carmela banachala (Hatavor 46 St.) is situated at the edge of the shopping area of Nachalat Binyamin and offers a fine selection of fresh seafood and meat. This bistro is located at a beautiful restored building, and allows the diners to enjoy their meal in a hospitable atmosphere. Agadir bar burger (2 Nachalat Binyamin St.) claims to have one of the city's finest burgers. It is nothing like a fast food joint, but rather an extremely popular restaurant which is open till very late. Located in the heart of Nachalat Binyamin pedestrian walkway, Agadir offers a comfortable setting, good music and tasty food. Hamitbahon (18 Rabi Akiva St.) is a small homemade food restaurant in the crossing point of the Nachalat Binyamin pedestrian' walkway and the Carmel market. It is a small and authentic black-board restaurant, with traditional Israeli and North African dishes, including Cuscus, tahini and beans, all in very affordable prices. Another fun option for a cold beer nearby is the Minzar bar (the Monastery) at 60 Allenby St., known for its unorthodox opening hours.

Rashel: A Memorable Moroccan Fusion Dining Experience in Tel Aviv

Rashel: A Memorable Moroccan Fusion Dining Experience in Tel Aviv

As an American tourist visiting Tel Aviv, I had the pleasure of dining at Rashel, a Moroccan restaurant and lounge bar located in the port of Tel Aviv. The restaurant offers a Mediterranean fusion menu and is strictly kosher. From the moment I stepped inside, I was immediately transported to another world. The restaurant's decor was beautiful, with bright colors and intricate patterns, and the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. The menu at Rashel was extensive and offered a variety of dishes that blended traditional Moroccan flavors with modern Mediterranean cuisine. The chef clearly takes pride in using the best and freshest ingredients available, and it showed in the taste and presentation of each dish. I started with the kitchen jam and carpaccio, which were both delicious and full of flavor. For my main course, I tried the grilled sea bass and was blown away by the delicate and perfectly cooked fish, which was accompanied by a flavorful side of beets. The dessert menu at Rashel was equally impressive, and I indulged in the millefeuille Louisa and lemon, which was a perfect ending to my meal. Overall, my experience at Rashel was exceptional. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was vibrant, and the service was attentive and friendly. I would highly recommend Rashel to anyone looking for a unique and memorable dining experience in Tel Aviv.
