This vibrant, edgy city is the undisputed cultural center of Israel, effortlessly blending old and new. Known as the White City for all its Bauhaus buildings, it's best appreciated by simply taking to the streets.

Wander through the trendy Neve Tzedek neighborhood, just off the bustling Carmel Market. Sample dark-chocolate truffles at Dolce Mia, and drop into Jajo Vino for French Chablis and tapas.

Visit the Nachum Gutman Museum for a colorful glimpse of the city's history. Housed in a beautifully restored fin de siècle building, it contains a choice selection of works by the foremost Tel Aviv artist, for whom it's named (gutmanmuseum.co.il).

Dine on tender shrimp and calamari in tangy lemon-Parmesan sauce at the beachfront restaurant Manta Ray (mantaray.co.il).

Shop for forgotten treasures at Old Jaffa's flea market and explore the many galleries tucked away in the tiny alleyways of this ancient seaport.

Stroll down Rothschild Boulevard, admiring the impressive architecture while rubbing shoulders with local celebrities in this city that never sleeps.

    The sixty-years' -celebration.


    What is there to celebrate ??
    the 6 wars ??
    the 4 million refugees ??
    the 3 million occupied ??
    the 1,5 million abducted-hostages ??
    the 254 km of an Apartheid- Wall ??
    the 562 humiliation- check-points ??
    the 20.000 Political-prisoners ??
    468.831 new settlers on an occupied land ??

    the disappearance of Palestine ??

    the denial of any human-rights ,
    any national-rights
    any historical-rights ,
    any political-rights to the Palestinians ??

    the import of 4 million impostors
    into a stolen land, that was never theirs ??

    60 years of misery ,
    of deprivation and or ethnic-cleansing ??

    what are they celebrating ??
    the event of a one United Nation Resolution
    which was not anyhow binding , which allowed them to stay
    or
    the refusal of about 40 other resolutions
    which were indeed binding ,
    but asking them to leave ??

    what are they celebrating ??
    the massacres of
    Deir Yasssin ,
    Sabra and Chatilla ,
    Jennin and Gaza ??


    Who else but criminals celebrate a crime ??

    60 Years of a constantly revolving crime ,
    is no reason to a celebration
    but rather a reason to be ashamed
    and to repent .

    60 Years ago ,
    we were farmers , teachers, workers ,
    shop-keepers, carpenters , drivers and poets....... ..
    now they made 'Terrorists ' out of us.
    But at least , we the 'terrorist' are fighting against a crime
    while those blue-eyed-Zionists are ,themselves , the crime ,
    that 60 years old Crime !
