Explore the remains of Egyptian, Canaanite, and Crusader civilisations, and learn about the biblical history of early Christianity, including St. Peter’s activities in the area.

Next, travel from old to modern as you head to Tel Aviv, the first modern Hebrew city in the world, founded in 1909. Learn about the city’s founders and the beginning of its development. Walk along the first four streets and the first boulevard, now named Rothschild, and discover the history behind the people and buildings, from Bauhaus style to Habima Theatre.

Hear stories of Tel Aviv’s vibrant culture, from the first kiosk and hotel to the Rothschild Bank and its hotel. Learn about the Israeli Philharmonic Orchestra and the city’s first skyscraper, “Kolbo Shalom.” Experience the energy of a city that never stops, recognised by UNESCO.
