Tel Aviv - Jaffa On The Mediterranean
The City That Never Sleeps
Entertainment and action galore for revelers and
vacationers of every stripe - that's Tel Aviv, proud to live up to its
distinction as "The City That Never Sleeps." Throughout Tel Aviv, many
pubs and bars open early in the afternoon and don't close until an hour
or two before dawn. Many feature live music at least once a week -
everything from "dance" and "house" to Middle Eastern, reggae to rock,
and jazz to blues.
Night clubs and dance clubs open their doors around 11 pm or midnight
and rarely close before 3 or 4 - if then! Ethnic nightclubs draw
patrons of all ages and feature performers and entertainers from just
about every community making up the city's complex social fabric.
Artists presenting repertoires that reflect the entertainment culture
of Turkey, Iran, Greece, Israel, and Russia abound in Tel Aviv,
especially in Jaffa and the "Little Tel Aviv district in the north of
the city, but not only there.

After
midnight the serious nightlife scene begins, as Tel Aviv's younger
residents in particular flock to the dance clubs in south Tel Aviv and
Allenby Street, or, in the summer, to the beaches and the Tel Aviv and
Jaffa ports, where the partying often continues until after dawn. One
significant focus of late-night action in south Tel Aviv is Lilienblum
St. and the surrounding area, with their ever growing number of bars,
bistros and restaurants. Â Neve Tzedek, not far away, is another focal
point for night life.
One more area of the
city that also has been developing as a hub for nightlife, dining and
fun is farther north, located between the old Tel Aviv Port and the
Hayarkon Estuary. Elsewhere in Tel Aviv too, newer nightspot areas are
also developing - and the number of clubs and discos in the city,
spotlighting just about every type of music to dance to, has
transformed it into a center of entertainment and merriment that is
second to none and has been earning a reputation abroad as well as at
home..
