Nahalat Binyamin Crafts Market

Top choice in Tel Aviv


Open on Tuesdays and Fridays, this is the city's premier arts and crafts market. Expect a plethora of stalls selling paintings, ornaments and other handmade crafts, plus the odd street performer. It's also a great place to grab a bite to eat and an ice cream from Arte.
