Description:

The information about the red bus - Line 100 in Tel Aviv is based on data from 2019.

Old Port Tel Aviv today is a popular and favorite place. Playgrounds, shops, excellent fish restaurants, cafes, bars, and, of course, the fresh sea breeze with bright sunshine is the best that can be for families. In the evening, the port becomes the center of entertainment, with nightclubs, festivals, concerts, and performances. However, the port became an entertainment place relatively recently, in the early 1990s. It was founded in 1937, after the difficulties of using the port in Jaffa, due to the Arab boycott.

This station is close to the port of Tel Aviv. Its name is reminiscent of the Biblical name of the nautical.

The neighborhood to our left was called the Workers' Quarter. It was built in 1931 for members of the labor movement. One of the residents of this neighborhood was David Ben-Gurion, the first prime minister of the State of Israel. Ben-Gurion donated his private home to the State of Israel. There is a museum where you can learn the lifestyle of one of the great leaders of the twentieth century.

Hayarkon Street, crosses the city from south to north and reaches the north, to the banks of the Yarkon River. The street is parallel to the seashore. It was built according to the plan of the Scottish architect Patrick Geddes in 1925. On the right you can see Independence Park. In which stands a memorial to the pilots who fell defending Tel Aviv from an Egyptian attack after the declaration of independence of the State of Israel. The nearby street is named Arlozorov Street. Many embassies and hotels are located along the street.

Tel Aviv's coastline was paved with a beautiful promenade named after Shlomo Lahat, who served for many years as mayor of Tel Aviv. Here stands the Dan Hotel with its familiar painted walls. The walls of the Dan Hotel are painted by the renowned artist Yaakov Agam in the spirit of kinetic art.

The Garden of London was planted as a tribute to the British people's standing in German air attacks during the Second World War. On August 3, 1939, the illegal immigrant ship Tiger Hill was anchored on this shore. It was the last ship anchored on the shores of the country before the outbreak of World War II. For this reason, the park is dedicated as a gesture to the "Ha'apala" project, in which more than 120,000 people, including women, the elderly and children, arrived in Israel in secret ways, endangering their lives. The issue of illegal immigration is one of the heroic and humanistic endeavors that symbolize the struggle for the rebirth of the State of Israel.

This beach is called the "Jerusalem Beach" as a tribute to the capital of the State of Israel, which is blessed with many virtues but not on the beach. The tower to your left is called Opera Tower. This was where the Israeli Opera began. At the founding of the State of Israel, it housed the Knesset building in its first months, before Jerusalem was declared the capital of Israel. Herbert Samuel Street was named after the first British Commissioner in Palestine. From here came the funeral procession of the visionary of the state, Dr. Benjamin Ze'ev Herzl, whose bones were brought to Eretz Israel following his will. To the south, you can see the bay on which the Old City of Jaffa is built and to which we will arrive within a few minutes.

On the left is the Hassan Bek Mosque, which was built in 1914 and is active to this day. The garden on the right is called the Charles Clore Garden and it was planted in the place where the Manshiyya neighborhood used to be. In the heart of the garden are lawns, playgrounds, outdoor sculptures and a nice promenade along the beach.

Old Jaffa is a 4000-year-old city. The British Mandate authorities broke the way we travel in 1936 as part of their struggle against the Arab revolt that broke out that year. The British destroyed many houses and created this passage between the south and north of the city. The area that was called the 'Great Area' and was the focus of crime and abandonment. It was renovated in 1965 by the Tel Aviv Municipality as an artists' city, and today many art galleries are active here. A visitors' center tells about events in Jaffa's 4000-year history, showing archaeological excavations. Here there are lots of outdoor sculptures and art. The restoration of Old Jaffa was carried out with the desire to preserve the mysterious and romantic character of the city. The alleys of the city are named after the Zodiac and the wooden bridge beneath which we pass is called the Bridge of Wishes. Ask for a wish in your past under the bridge, and perhaps it will come true.

Clock Square is the main square of the city of Jaffa. The clock tower was built in 1906 in honor of the Turkish Sultan Abd al-Hamid II on the 30th anniversary of his ascension to the throne. On both sides of the square were the governing institutions of Jaffa, the central mosque, the police building, and the city hall. This house was blown up by the Lehi underground in January 1948 during the War of Independence.

Between the coastline and the neighborhoods of Neve Tzedek and Menasheh, the railway station on the Jaffa-Jerusalem line operated from 1892 until 1948. It was the first train line to replace the camel by transporting heavy loads. Today, the railway station complex includes buildings from different periods, which are meticulously restored. Here a cultural and leisure complex was built, including galleries, restaurants, cafes and more.

Close to this station is the home of Akiva Aryeh Weiss, the man who conceived the idea of establishing the city of Tel Aviv and saw it as a future gateway to the Land of Israel. Opposite him lived the writer Ahad Ha'am, the literary name of Asher Ginzburg, a great Zionist leader who believed in the revival of the Land of Israel to the spiritual center of the Jewish people. This street named after him in his lifetime. At his death, Ahad Ha'am was buried in the historic cemetery of Tel Aviv on Trumpeldor Street. You can see the houses that were preserved since the beginning of Tel Aviv.

This square was established at the place where a lottery was held in the city of Tel Aviv. Lottery referred to plots for construction. The monument commemorates the founders' names and is built around a pool, reminiscent of the first water tower of Tel Aviv that stands here. Next to the square stands Meir Dizengoff House, the energetic mayor whose house has become a museum. Here the State of Israel was declared on Friday, May 15th, 1948, and is today the Museum of Independence Hall.

Nahalat Binyamin is the second neighborhood of Tel Aviv, and it was established close to the first neighborhood, Ahuzat Bayit. Nahalat Binyamin commemorates two people named Binyamin. One is Benjamin Ze'ev Herzl, and the other is Baron Benjamin Edmond de Rothschild, the well-known philanthropist. In this neighborhood lived merchants and artisans, some of whom were known for their activity in the development of the Land of Israel. Among them is Avraham Krinitzi, one of the founders of Ramat Gan.

Rothschild Boulevard was and remains the central axis of the city of Tel Aviv. On Rothschild Boulevard, houses were built in the international style known as the "bau-house" style. Many of the houses have been restored in recent years. The most prominent of them is the 'Russian Embassy' on 46 Rothschild Boulevard, originally planned by Yehuda Magidovich and reconstructed by Amnon Bar-Or. Tel Aviv is one of the most important cities in the world in terms of the number of houses in the style "Bauhaus". Therefore, Tel Aviv received the title of UNESCO International Heritage City.

Habima Square is located at the end of Rothschild Boulevard, with a number of cultural buildings on a national scale. The most prominent of these is the Habimah Theater, which is the home of Habima National Theater. The theater was founded in Russia at the beginning of the twentieth century. Near the Habima House stands the Mann Auditorium, which serves as the headquarters of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, founded in 1936 by cellist Bronislaw Haberman. The hall and the theater are built around an ancient sycamore tree. In the heart of the square stood the three-circle statue lying diagonally and seemed to overcome gravity. The sculpture is the work of the artist Menashe Kadishman.

Meir Dizengoff was mayor of Tel Aviv for twenty-five years from 1911 until his death. He was the most prominent and important figure in the city. He turned Tel Aviv from a small neighborhood in the sands into a rhythmic, vibrant city, a center of culture and action. For many years Dizengoff Street was the central cultural lifeline of Tel Aviv and the entire country.

Poets, painters, artists and cultural figures met in the city's cafes and shaped the Israeli culture. Along the street were leading art and cultural institutions and fashion houses. At the intersection of Dizengoff and King George streets stand the Lev Dizengoff Tower, which was one of the first malls in the city.

The large square at the foot of the city hall was once called "Kings of Israel Square." Today Rabin Square was named "Rabin Square," in memory of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, who was murdered when he descended from stairs, from the city hall balcony to the square on Saturday night, November 4, 1995. Yitzhak Rabin was a Palmach leader, prime minister and Nobel Peace Prize laureate. The place of his murder is a memorial site. Sculpture by the artist Yael Artzi was placed in it, simulating the earthquake that the State of Israel experienced in the face of the murder.

Further to the courthouse are the important cultural sites of the Golda Center. The Tel-Aviv Museum of Fine Art presents a variety of works of art from Israel and around the world. The Central Library The Ariela House contains the Zion Gate Library that was founded in Jaffa in 1887 and continues to function today.

Menachem Begin Street is named for the sixth Prime Minister of Israel, Menachem Begin, who was the Israeli leader who made peace with Egyptian leader Anwar Sadat. Menachem Begin Road is the main traffic artery that crosses the Dan region and is formerly called Petah-Tikva Road. On the right of the street is a neighborhood named Montefiore. The neighborhood was built on the site of the first Jewish orchard in Jaffa that was purchased by philanthropist Moses Montefiore in 1854.

The railway station, formerly known as the Tel Aviv Central Railway Station, was named after Menachem Savidor, who headed the railroad company in the 1950s and was later elected to the Knesset and served as Speaker of the Knesset.

The Bavli neighborhood is named after the Babylonian Talmud, and many streets bear names related to rabbinic literature such as the Great Synagogue, Yerushalmi, Sanhedrin, Mishna, Tosefta, HaZohar, Onkelos and Ben Sira, as well as names of rabbis such as Rabbi Herzog and Rabbi Uziel. The Namir Road is Rabbi Herzog Street, which also houses the commercial center.

Haim Levanon served as mayor of Tel Aviv and during his tenure opened this area and established the large exhibition complex, the Eretz Israel Museum, and Tel Aviv University. The Eretz Israel Museum presents many exhibitions dealing with a variety of aspects of Israeli culture. It is located around Tel Qasile, which was a back port city of Jaffa on the banks of the Yarkon.

In close proximity to the Eretz Israel Museum, the Palmach Museum depicts the main fighting organization that operated in the Jewish community on the eve of the declaration of the state and the establishment of the IDF. The Palmach was established to assist in the struggle against the Germans who were about to invade Palestine and later played a central role in the War of Independence. Many Palmach leaders played key roles in Israel's political, economic, cultural and social leadership.

The University of Tel Aviv is one of the most important academic centers in the country. The university is involved in research in all academic fields and is considered a prestigious institution with many successes in various fields. We turn right in the direction of Kalachkin Street, which commemorates the Israeli philosopher Yaakov Klatchkin. To our left is the Afeka neighborhood, which was established by Haganah leaders. The houses of Afeka and its adjacent neighborhoods have shaped the image of the northern Tel Aviv area as a modern and prestigious environment.

This train station was built in 2000 to serve as a passenger station to Tel Aviv University and visitors to the exhibition center. It opened on October 26, 2000. Its design was carried out by architects Errol Packer and Saadia Mandel.

Reading Station is named after the power station beyond the Yarkon which is now used as an exhibition hall. Here, on the banks of the Yarkon River, close to where the river spilled into the sea, there were huge international exhibitions. In 1932, the Maccabiah Conference was held here, which was a kind of Jewish Olympics. Two years later, the Levant Fair was held, an international exhibition that sought to create an economic and cultural encounter between East and West. In 1936 the first concert of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra was held under the direction of Arturo Toscanini.
