Sarona – The Templar Colony

Sarona – The Templar Colony

Tel Aviv travel guide

Sarona is a complex in Tel Aviv, originally built as a colony by German Templars over 140 years ago. It has been renovated and now houses boutique stores, artist galleries, cafes, and some of the city’s most popular restaurants and bars.

The Tel Aviv Municipality worked hard to restore 33 buildings in Sarona so it could become a special place for people to shop, work and visit. They made sure to keep the old features of the buildings so it would look beautiful. The complex opened in 2014 and will have more buildings added later.
Sarona is a cool place in Tel Aviv with lots of stores and restaurants and The Sarona Market. There are luxury brands and local fashion stores, art galleries, cafes, burger bars, Italian restaurants, wine bars, and lots of other places to eat and drink. You can even rent picnic baskets to eat in the grassy area in the middle.

Take part in the exciting story of Sarona’s Templar Colony by exploring the beautiful grounds. Visit Beit Ha’Am, the clock, the old olive mill (Beit Ha’Bad), and the former dance school that became Israel’s Finance Minister.

Hayarkon Park Tel Aviv

Hayarkon Park Tel Aviv

Located at the north end of the city, Hayarkon Park is the largest public park in Tel Aviv and one of the most famous parks in Israel. It is a kind of a "central park" in the north of Tel Aviv, but even bigger. Alongside trees and greenery, the Yarkon River is streaming through this giant park, which is the major urban retreat inside of the city, along with the Tel Aviv beaches, off course. Hayarkon Park is a perfect chill out place for couples and is full with children and family activities. The eastern part of the park is much wider and has many all-family activity centers. The western part of the park is narrower, less family-oriented, and is a better choice for chill out seekers, especially on weekends, when the rest of the park tends to be packed. Hayarkon Park is jam-packed with family activities, therefore a great place to hang out with your children. Cycling is probably the best way to explore the park, which has a network of small trails and places to rent bicycles. It is flat in most parts, making cycling with children pretty easy. For the ones wishing to explore the park through the river, there are few rental places that offer paddle boats, kayaks, and small motor boats, both in the river and the artificial lake in the north-eastern part of the park. Other family activities include a miniature golf field at the north river bank and Tel Aviv's largest amusement park, the "Lunapark", with rollercoasters, pirate ships and other facilities just across the road. In the north bank of Hayarkon Park you will find the "Sportec", a large sports center with basketball and rollerblades courts and several soccer fields. It also has a wall climbing facility with all the necessary gear, guidance and security measures. When it comes to family activities and chilling out in the city, it is difficult to beat the Hayarkon Park.. Though many people visit the park every weekend, it is large enough and has many corners and activities for you to find exactly what you're looking for, whether it's cycling, paddling by boat, traveling or chilling out.

Sea and Sun – Beaches of Tel Aviv

Sea and Sun – Beaches of Tel Aviv

The beautiful white beaches of Tel Aviv are the city’s most popular attraction and a must for any visitor. The magnificent promenade (“Tayelet” in Hebrew), with its beachfront cafes and restaurants, runs along the shore at the main hotel area, providing a great location for morning or afternoon jogging. Surfing The beaches are mostly crowded on weekends (Friday and Saturday), and are pleasantly quiet in early mornings, when the only brave swimmers are seniors working on their exercise. The seashores are dotted with kiosks just a few steps from the water, tan worshipers lying on beach-beds while others carefully sitting under parasols. Beautiful Mediterranean Sunset While at the beach you may find yourself moving your head from the right to the left, following local pairs playing “Matkot” (Israeli beach Tennis), and on summer evenings, soon after the beautiful Mediterranean sunset, the beaches become a great location for night hang outs, you can find many beach bars, from the new and renovated Mezizim beach bar to the one North of the Marina and others along the beach. http://www.inisrael.com/news/?p=465
