Tel Aviv Day Trip

On Thursday, we broke loose from the Beit Midrash (house of study) at the Yeshiva and took a trip to Tel Aviv with a great tour guide. We saw historical sites throughout the city from the beginning of the city to sites that showed its modern cosmopolitan nature. It was a fun trip and Jen and I plan to return to Tel Aviv soon, to just spend the day on the beach. It looked so wonderful!





From the beach, modern skyscraper Tel Aviv.





The downtown transformed into a chic shopping district.





We visited Independence Hall, where the State of Israel was proclaimed on May 14, 1948.





Pedestrian malls abound and are quite beautiful.





Standing in front of the elaborately decorated door, our tour guide tells us the history of a old Yeshiva in Tel Aviv.
