Chelouche Gallery for Contemporary Art
Walk a few blocks down from the busy Carmel Market to Mazeh Street. Turn left onto a quiet and bright lane of Bauhaus apartments and pillared buildings in the heart of the White City that look like they were transplanted from Saint Petersburg. At number 7 you’ll come across the Twin Houses, which is home to the Chelouche Gallery for Contemporary Art. Originally built in the 1920’s by the architect Joseph Berlin, the classic, open, and polished exterior welcomes visitors just before they enter the bright and surprisingly cozy gallery interior.

They offer a great way to experience the country, meet local people,... Read More
Things to do in Beer Sheva
Beer Sheva is the capital of the Negev region of Israel, a desert city that serves as the gateway to this region. Beer Sheva is generally not on the agendas of many tourists to Israel, and is therefore somewhat of an off the beaten track destination. There are a number of interesting and unique things to do in Beer Sheva, an ancient city dating from Biblical times, including the old Turkish town, which is the only planned Ottoman city in the region, the Turkish railway station, and the Bedouin market, as well as nearby Tel Beer Sheba which is the archaeological remnants of the ancient city and UNESCO World Heritage Site.
