Story through
Reading Park, which is near the Reading power station and the Yarkon Stream estuary in the north of Tel Aviv, was once the place where the Mediterranean Sea ended and the "forbidden city of the electric company” started. Since the inauguration of the promenade, which connects between the power station’s cooling pools and the Tel Baruch beach, this place is open to visitors and offers a completely different Tel Avivi experience. The Reading Park, which spreads over 60 dunams, is quiet and is great for a leisurely walk near the open sea, with this quiet only occasionally being disturbed by landing airplanes activity in the nearby Sdeh Dov and Air Force airports. Reading Park is rich in natural coastal flora and fauna. The cooling pools’ 200 meters breakwater, allows for a walk along a narrow path into the Mediterranean Sea. Above the cooling pools was built a 160 meters long pedestrian and bicycle bridge, which is also disabled accessible.

The Drums’ Beach, or Drummers’ Beach, is a southern Tel Aviv beach, located near the structure which once held Tel Aviv’s Dolphinarium, and named after the familiar scene for which it is famous. Every Friday near sunset people gather here on the pier with drums, Middle Eastern goblet drums (or darbukas), guitars and flutes, and welcome the sunset with playing, dancing and juggling in a contagious Shanti (in Sanskrit meaning bliss) atmosphere. This alternative welcoming of the Sabbath has been performed here for about twenty years already and it attracts great numbers of people who come to participate in the celebration, drink alcohol which is being sold here in quantity and enjoy this unique scene until it is dark.

The garden was re-opened recently, after development and renovation works in honor of Tel Aviv’s centennial celebrations. Today it connects with the beach promenade and serves as a great park which attracts many families due to its amusement installations, the fountain in which children can dip, its sports facilities, Yoga platform, sculptures and numerous areas for barbeque.

A Museum on the southern beach of Tel Aviv for the commemoration of the 41 Etzel soldiers who fell during the battle for Jaffa. (Etzel is the Hebrew acronym for the "National Military Organization", which operated in the country at the time of the British mandate here and was later absorbed into the Israel Defense Forces). The museum is housed in a structure which was built at the beginning of the 20th century in the neighborhood of Menashiya by a Jewish business man, who was afterward killed during WWI. It later served as a house for Arab people from Jaffa and also for industrial purposes and for commerce. The structure was reconstructed and renovated and it was opened as a museum in 1983. To the old limestone structure was added a modern dark glass structure. The museum surveys the origin of the Etzel, starting with the United Nations’ decision in 1947 to divide the country, and until Etzel’s absorption into the IDF in June 1st, 1948. Here one can see on display weapons, historic documents, photographs, films, newspaper clippings and maps.

The Jaffa Port is one of the world’s most ancient ports and these days it is going through renovation and development works. It is situated between, to the north, the rocks of Andromeda, in front of the Al-Bahr Mosque (Sea Mosque), and to the south, the Jaffa Slope. In its past, this port has served as a shipping port, but its activity was terminated with the opening of the Ashdod port in the 1960s. Since then it has been used as a fishing port and today, after comprehensive renovation works, it is considered to be one of the most popular tourist attractions in Jaffa. It is busy with fishing; fish restaurants; the "Blackout” restaurant- which is at the "Na laga’at” (please touch) Center- which is run by deaf and blind staff and which also holds various shows; an abundance of galleries and art complexes, such as Warehouse 2 where exhibitions and various art displays are presented.

Along the coast of the Ajami neighborhood of Jaffa, spreading over 200 dunams of green gassy hills is the Jaffa Slope Park, one of Tel Aviv-Jaffa’s most beautiful parks. The Jaffa Slope Park, which stretches between the Jaffa Port on the north and the Aliyah Hill on the south, used to serve as a dump yard for construction waste for many years and was an environmental hazard and a center for criminal activity. Since the park opened in 2010, after extensive renovation works, this place turned into a popular and busy recreational site. Along this beautiful park passes a promenade which serves as a wharf for fishermen, a place for sportive walks, bicycle rides, leisurely walks or sitting on the lookout benches in front of the sea.
