Jaffa, a thousand-year-old city set on Israel's Mediterranean coast, is Tel Aviv's oldest harbor and a gem where history meets modernity. Legend has it that it was built by Noah's son, Japheth, more than 4,000 years ago, and the Old Town's stone paths, winding alleys and Ottoman-era buildings tell of past glories in every brick and tile. As a multicultural melting pot, it was once cohabited by Jews, Arabs and Christians, and religious buildings such as St. Peter's Church and the Jaffa Clock Tower bear witness to the inclusive symbiosis. Nowadays, Jaffa is home to artists, galleries and handicraft stores, the seafood market is filled with the aroma of grilled fish, and the sunsets on the cliffs are even more famous, framing the Mediterranean waves and the silhouettes of the old city for eternity. From an ancient port to a literary landmark, Jaffa attracts visitors from all over the world with its unique charms, making it a must-see humanistic landmark in Israel.
