Many houses on Jaffa Street are just the backyards of the facade of the English architecture parallel to Atzmaut Street. The British, who began to develop Haifa in the late twenties and especially in the thirties of the twentieth century, poured a wide ledge into the sea, creating a deep-water port. Part of this ledge was taken under the wide Kings Way Avenue - the road of kings. (The current Independence Avenue). Through Jaffa, goods were transported to prestigious stores on King's Way. Today it is a semi-slum of the poor neighborhoods of Jaffa Street. Here you can find graffiti and it is not difficult to see in these colored figures warriors of different times and peoples, ranging from the soldiers of the Egyptian pharaohs to the fighters of Star Wars.

A mixture of former English colonial grandeur, long desolation and modern revival. Jaffa Street, the old port area and the current update in a good mix of stories and adventures that can only happen in a port city, where Germans, British, illegal immigrants and underground fighters left their mark. It will not do without the mythological Israeli car Susit, daring attacks by underground fighters, tragic flooding of ships, pubs, bars and restaurants, from traditional Mediterranean cuisine to a classic English pub or French restaurant. Let's go for a walk. Translated with Google Translate
