Florentin Walk (Self Guided), Tel Aviv

Florentine is often compared to New York鈥檚 SoHo. This old neighborhood, once an industrial district of small workshops is now a cool, sassy, trendy part of the city with an underground atmosphere. It is filled with art galleries, artists' workshops, street art, hip stores, bars, pubs and caf茅s.

If you have come to shop, you won't be disappointed. Florentin Street is the main hub of activity, but wander through the entire area and its numerous lanes and back alleys. During the day, this part of the city is a hive of creative activity as artists work in their studios and carpenters, cobblers, bakers and others ply their trade. The fruits of their labors can be seen and purchased in Florentine鈥檚 shops.

Visit Levinsky Street for its shops selling spices and teas. On Wolfson, Matalon and Herzl Streets, you will discover many stores selling household appliances, furniture and light fixtures.

Come back to Florentine after dark, when the bars selling cheap alcohol, nightclubs and eateries make this an exciting and inviting city nightspot. One of the quarter's most popular nightlife destinations is Vital Street. Florentine is a wonderful neighborhood where old and new peacefully and happily coexist, providing a rich mix of memorable experiences.
