"Neve Tzedek" a Tel Aviv-Yafo Travel Page by Jackiekg

At the end of the 19th century Neve Tzedek was built as a Jewish Quarter for those who wished to move out of Yafo. Today it has become the "in" place to live, mostly for intellectuals looking for something different. Behind the Dan Panarama Hotel which is situated at 10 Kaufman Street. South Tel-Aviv
This picture was taken at the entrance to Rokach House, 36 Shimon Rokach Street, Neve Tzedek, Tel Aviv. Tel: 03-5162531, 03-5100655. The house is open to visitors on Friday and Saturday between 10am-2pm. Other days, for groups by appointment.

An historic site. An Encounter with a Hundred-Year-Old Way of Life - a video movie screening, furniture, clothing, accessories and photographs on view. Rokach House symbolizes the activity of the Jewish population in the Land of Israel, in the pre-Zionist era. In the year 1887 a new Hebrew neighbourhood was built in the sands out of which grew the city of Tel-Aviv.

I've been to Neve Tzedek again and I'm adding some photos - it's such a nice area to wonder around and take pictures, they don't have to be of anything special.

At the beginning of the 20th century it was a boy's school, a girl's school and a cultural center. Today the central plaza is used for open-air performances and festivals, and its halls for dance and drama presentations. The Bat-Sheva & Inbal Dance Companies, two of the best Israeli dance companies, perform here.
