About Our Tour: Neve Tzedek
The Neve Tzedek neighborhood was established in 1887, before Tel Aviv itself. It was founded by a group of Jewish families seeking to move outside of the overcrowded city of Yafo. Residents preferred to build the new quarter with low-rise buildings along narrow streets with the houses often incorporating design elements from international art movements . Shortly after it was created, a train station was built nearby, connecting Yafo and Jerusalem, bringing in a boost of commerce and culture to the area. Over the years, Tel Aviv expanded north, but modern architecture skipped the old Neve Tzedek neighborhood, leaving it with incredible charm. The community is full of history including a beautiful array of synagogues, and houses of note from some of Zionism’s leading early figures including Rav Kook, Shai Agnon and artist Nahum Gutman.
