Tel Aviv

Tel Aviv is the first place where anyone goes ... because that is where the Ben Gurion Airport is located. It is the former capital of Israel (from 1948-1951). It is also the home of many incredibly good sports teams, such as the Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball team, who has won the Israeli championship 24 times in the last 30 years. It is considered the "Silicon Valley" of Israel. If you have free time, you can visit Israel's first Prime Minister's house, which is now a museum, located in the centre of the city.

Today, Tel Aviv is Israel's second largest city (after Jerusalem), with a population of 360,000. The larger metropolitan area comprises a number of separate municipalities that have expanded and grown into a great urban bloc with Tel Aviv. Over 1 million people live in this spread - about 1/6 of the population of Israel.
