Tour location

Carmel Market

On the eve of World War I,
Arthur Ruppin offers Russian Jews to purchase land in Tel Aviv For investment, and a small portion of them bought land in the area of Carmel Street and the corner of Allenby.
With the Russian Revolution, many fled and those who bought land from Arthur Ruppin came to Tel Aviv to sell the property because it was what they had left.

"Ruppin refugees" were the name given to Russian Jews who owned land and sought to make a living and set up stalls (stalls) along Carmel Street. Until now, most merchants sold along Allenby Street at the corner of Carmel (Magen David Square today).

Meir Dizengoff, the mayor of the town (it was not yet a city) gives approval for the establishment of the marketDespite many objections from Arabs and Jews who sold without a permit (did not pay taxes), after World War I (1920), a more organized market emerged and Tel Aviv developed, also thanks to the Carmel Market and its energies.

New alongside old in the Carmel MarketModern restaurants and stalls of today alongside the bureka of yesteryear, Yemeni bakery, rolled malawah, falafel and street food galore.

The colorfulness Of fruits and vegetables, pickles alongside sweets, restaurants of all kinds scattered around, clothing stalls alongside gifts and cosmetics, and even Nazarene knafe alongside Georgian or Greek or South American food...

The main streets In terms of culinary activity, they are the Carmel Streets and its abundance of stalls, Rambam Street – an important culinary intersection, Yom Tov and its cafes, Magen David Square, which borders Allenby Street, and a series of tiny restaurants and cafes.

And let's not forget the "Nachlat Binyamin Pedestrian Street" Adjacent to the market, it is like a stepbrother and complements the activities of the Carmel Market.
