At every given moment, Tel Aviv has only one goal - having fun.

Everyday there’s something new to discover, a new place to go to, a diverse crowd to meet and new sensations to experience. Art galleries, hosting avant-garde shows and exhibits, street fairs commemorating the architecture and the exiting history of the city, and vast (and sometime, wild) festivals, all celebrating the locals imagination.
