Tel Aviv (Hebrew: תֵּל־אָבִיב-] usually Tel Aviv, is the second-largest city in Israel, with an estimated population of 390,100.[1] The city is situated on the Israeli Mediterranean coastline, with a land area of 51.8 square kilometres (20.0 sq mi). It is the largest and most populous city in the metropolitan area of Gush Dan, home to 3.15 million people as of 2008. The city is governed by the Tel Aviv-Yafo municipality, headed by Ron Huldai.[4]

Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 on the outskirts of the ancient port city of Jaffa (Hebrew: יָפוֹ‎,)The growth of Tel Aviv soon outpaced Jaffa, which was largely Arab at the time. Tel Aviv and Jaffa were merged into a single municipality in 1950, two years after the establishment of the State of Israel. Tel Aviv's White City, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003, comprises the world's largest concentration of Modernist-style buildings.

Tel Aviv is Israel's economic hub and its richest city, home to the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange and many corporate offices and research and development centers.Its beaches, bars, cafés, upscale shopping and cosmopolitan lifestyle have made it a popular tourist destination,[9] and given way to its reputation as a "Mediterranean city that never sleeps."[10] It is the country's cultural capital and a major performing arts and commerce center.Tel Aviv's urban area is the Middle East's second biggest city economy] placed 52nd in the world's list of cities by GDP, and 42nd in the Foreign Policy's list of global cities.[13] It is also the most expensive city in the region, and 14th most

  • @TheTahlio You're right,we just can't deny Israel any more and many Palestinians recognize the Israelis right to exist,except for the "Hamas people".but still most of Israelis can't imagine an independent,Demilitarized Palestinian state go along with their borders & many of them deny the Palestinian nation clamming that we're Arabs and we can live in any other Arabic country,THAT's not true we are an independent nationalism with our own cultures & traditions why can't we get our own state.

  • @margabr2 I know that palestine was full of arabs but jews came a little before word war 2...but i understand that arabs were there before...But i mean israel is here already what can we do...Do you want to shove 7 million jews out right now...Its already a little late to get rid of israel

  • @TheTahlio nonsense

  • may god destroy Israel . Amen

  • keep going Israel go and carry on crossing the international laws ????!!!!!!!?????!!!!!!

  • @TheTahlio 3) you can visit the websites of the Palestinian ministries to see the lists of rules and laws .4) talking about the cities, those cities of Israel used to be completely Arabic cities before the begging of the Jewish immigration toward Palestine early in the 20th century and before forcing the Palestinians to leave, and one of them is the city of Lod where I actually belong. But now you can search for the west bank which is still not a part of Israel, the city of Nablus and Ramala
