What to expect

  1. Jaffa Clock Tower Information Center
    10m
    Meet & greet. Talk about Ottoman Jaffa. “Why do so many clocks in Israel run late?” Intro to Sultan Abdul Hamid II and modernization of Jaffa.
  2. Jaffa Port
    10m
    One of the oldest ports in the world — where Jonah fled, Crusaders landed, and fishermen still cast their nets. Today it’s a mix of old stone arches, art galleries, and seaside cafés. Ancient vibes with a modern twist — and perfect for a sea-breeze selfie!
  3. Kikar Kedumim-Old Jaffa
    10m
    Ancient Jaffa. Jonah, Egyptians, Greeks. Layers of civilizations. Panoramic views of Tel Aviv.
  4. 10m
    Baroque beauty and pilgrimage stories. Napoleon’s brief stay. Christian-Muslim encounters here.
  5. 10m
    A peaceful hilltop park with stunning views of Tel Aviv’s skyline and coastline. Great place to reflect on Jaffa’s layers of history — from Egyptian gates to modern towers. Also features sculptures and archaeological remains tucked between trees and flowers. A breath of fresh air, literally and historically.
  6. Suspended Orange Tree
    10m
    A tree growing... from mid-air? This quirky sculpture by artist Ran Morin always gets a second look. Suspended in a clay pot, it’s a playful symbol of Jaffa itself — rooted in history, but always a little surreal.
