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.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
