Tel Aviv - Jaffa Israel's largest city and main commercial, financial and entertainment center is known as "the city that never stops". A cool sea breeze on the promenade provides welcome relief from the summer heat; along it are several historic landmarks, and the noisy, bustling outdoor Carmel Market is a Middle Eastern experience not to be missed. The Old City of Jaffa is today a truly eclectic mix: the traditional Mediterranean market town, the port (known for its fish restaurants), art galleries, up-market stores, flea market – all comfortably co-existing only a stone's throw from Tel Aviv.
