Tel Aviv, which means "spring mound", has a short modern history, by Middle East standards, established only in 1909. Originally a suburb of Jaffa, the city has since outpaced Jaffa, eventually absorbing it in 1950.
Tel Aviv is today the economic heart of Israel. It is the financial capital of the country as well as its cultural and business center. The city is on the Israeli Mediterranean coast, immediately to the north of the ancient port city of Jaffa. It is 60 km (37 mi) to the northwest of Jerusalem and 90 km south of Haifa.
Tel Aviv experiences a Mediterranean climate. Its summers are hot, with temperatures exceeding 30°C (86°F) in summer. Coldest months are January and February, when the average temperature may drop to less than 10°C (50°F). December and January are the wettest months, with 126 mm (4.9 in) of precipitation each. June to August are hot and dry, with hardly any rain.
Tel Aviv has the largest collection of buildings in the International Modern style, otherwise known as Bauhaus. Designed by immigrant architects trained in Europe particularly Germany, the Bauhaus-style structures were built between the 1930's and the 1940's. In 2003, this Bauhaus legacy received UNESCO recognition when the "White City" was declared a World Heritage Site.

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
