Description

High and above in Tel Aviv, overlooking the city skyscrapers and architecture.

The center skyscraper is in the middle is between Rothschild blvd and Yehuda Halevi street. The Azrieli towers can be seen of the left side at the horizon.

Tel Aviv city skyline presents the metropolis which is the cultural and business hub of Israel and is an active city with lively entertainment, culture, art, fashion events, movie theaters, shopping malls, food festivals, a variety of cuisines and an attractive nightlife scene.

Tel Aviv is an important business center for high tech companies, a center of commerce and a trade center that includes the Israeli stock market. The city enjoys a sense of international chic and all these have made Tel Aviv the business capital of Israel and an international center for conventions, exhibitions, and conferences.

The city of Tel Aviv is an open air museum exhibiting an impressive display of international style buildings and Bauhaus architecture.

Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 by a group of 66 jewish residents of Jaffa. They envisaged a European style garden suburb, with wide streets and boulevards.

Due to the extensive Bauhaus architecture buildings, Tel Aviv was declared a World Cultural Heritage site by Unesco in 2003. This building style became frequent in the 1930s because the city architects had strong links to the European architectural trends.
