Bauhaus Museum

Tel Aviv is known for its Bauhaus style of architecture. In the southern part of the city, many apartment buildings from the mid twentieth century were designed in that style. A good place to start is the Bauhas Museum on Bialik Street.

Took a walk along the Yarkon River, the park is filled with trails, athletic equipment and benches situated in shady groves. Then starting from the north, I walked along the beach, ending at the "Dog Beach," where dogs roam and play in the waves with other beach dogs!

Day 4 Itinerary

Places visited: Tel Aviv - Savidor Center

Tel Aviv - Savidor Center

Tel Aviv - Savidor Center

I needed to get to Ben Gurion airport on a Friday morning, which is usually fine by train but the railroad is using Friday mornings to perform repairs and regular maintenance on the tracks. So the city offers a free shuttle, that is a little hard to find. It leaves about once and hour from the Savidor Bus Station, to the west of the train station.
