Our fascinating & delicious tour gives you an insider view of the vibrant Levinsky Market area. Named after the Jewish-Russian writer Elhanan Lev Levinsky, the market is located along Levinsky Street and spreads out into the surrounding Florentin neighborhood. The area was originally planned as a commercial center for the Bulgarian, Bukharan, Persian, Balkan, Polish, and North African residents. This cultural patchwork made its mark on the unique varieties of spices and cuisines, ultimately shaping the Levinsky market we know today. The market has since transformed from a wholesale market for nuts and spices to a vibrant culinary hotspot with fine shops, cafes, and restaurants showcasing a variety of tastes and cultures. Today it is considered one of Tel Aviv’s most popular and diverse markets.
