It's hard to believe that Tel Aviv-Yafa has a history of more than 4,000 years, and has experienced the baptism of fire and blood. Every plant, tree, window, building and corner exudes a different artistic style. Many famous and unknown artists gather here to open studios. In addition, there are many individual shops and fashion restaurants. There are many explanations for the beautiful origin of the name "Israel" Japharaoh City, a land of artistic brilliance. Jewish tradition holds that after the flood that destroyed all things subsided, Japheth, the son of Noah, who survived, founded the city. People named it after him as Japheth and then the pronunciation gradually evolved into Japheth. Others believe that "Yafa" is a homonym of the Hebrew word "Beauty" because the scenery here is beautiful and picturesque. Some people also think that the meaning of Yafa means a place shining with white glory --- quot; refers to the glory shining on the cliff near the Cretaceous period. The Yafa in my eyes can be called "the land of artistic brilliance", where the flower of art blooms and makes the old city shine with dazzling brilliance.

    With more than 4,000 years of ancient Jaffa, it is one of the oldest cities in the world. The origin of the name Jaffa is explained in various ways, and Jewish tradition holds that after the great flood of destruction subsided, Japheth, the son of Noah, who survived the disaster, established the city, and people named it 'Jaffa' for some reason, and the pronunciation slowly evolved into Jaffa.

The wooden beams on both sides of the bridge are set with a metal statue every other section, exactly twelve pieces, representing twelve constellations, come to find your own constellations, make a wish~

    The city of Yafa is a small coastal ancient city in the south of Tel Aviv. The old city is not as old as imagined, but has some petty bourgeoisie sentiment. It feels a little similar to some ancient cities and towns in China, but it is quiet and far less noisy. It does not have such a strong historical and religious atmosphere as the old city of Jerusalem, which makes people feel fresh and comfortable. The old city and the twelve constellations have a deep origin. Stand on the bridge of the twelve constellations and make a wish to the sea. Of course, this is the best place to watch Tel Aviv. Also, cats are everywhere in Israel.

    Feeling the history and religion of the Jewish people in the ancient city of Yafa, there is a tourist center next to the Bell Tower to ask for free explanations at regular times about Yafa and its historical Carmel market, which sells a variety of things similar to the Chinese market, but is neat and clean and suitable for local residents to shop (& So Nachlat Binyamin, the art street next to a bunch of snacks, was amazing! Sell all kinds of handicraft works and the producer will introduce you! It's a good place to buy souvenirs, and St. Peter's Church in the ancient city of Yafa has a quiet atmosphere. It's comfortable and peaceful to s it in. In short, it s a place worth you a visit!

    Four thousand years old city, mottled and broken buildings permeate the sense of vicissitudes of life, the whole constellation street also shows a strong sense of humanism. However, the ancient cities along the Mediterranean coast are full of vitality, where there are some sunshine, some young people wantonly playing and surfing on the beach, which coincides with the huge national barbecue group is quite spectacular.
