Rothschild Boulevard and the White City
Tel Aviv's White City, with its Bauhaus and International Style buildings, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Rothschild Boulevard is its best-known street. A shaded walk down the boulevard is one of the easiest ways to see it.
Why it matters
The White City was recognised by UNESCO in 2003. Its buildings from the 1930s and 1940s shaped the look of central Tel Aviv, with clean lines, balconies and rounded corners.
Walking Rothschild Boulevard
The wide, tree-lined boulevard has a central path, kiosks and cafés. Walk its length and look up at the buildings above the shopfronts.
Independence Hall
On Rothschild Boulevard, Israel's declaration of independence was announced in 1948. The building is now a museum.
Learn more
The Bauhaus Center on Dizengoff Street offers information and guided walks about the White City architecture.
Getting there from Florentin
The boulevard is a short bike ride or a walk of around 25 minutes from the hotel. Shared bikes make it easy.
