The White City of Tel Aviv was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003. Its uniqueness lies in its International Style architecture, also known as Bauhaus.
What is so special about the White City? In this tour, we look for its cultural significance and historical roots. A hallmark of architectural preservation, that is also home to a lively community, it housed bohemians and politicians, that shaped Israel as we know it today.
You start this self-guided GPS audio tour at Dizengoff Square and finish in the same spot about 45 minutes later. You will be guided by the voice of Tomer Chelouche, a local and experienced Tel Aviv tour guide.
