The full story

The Carmel Market is the largest market in Tel Aviv. The market is bordered by Allenby Street and Magen David Square and the market is principally located along Carmel Street (which becomes King George Street after Magen David Square), but has expanded over time to streets such as Nahalat Binyamin Street. Carmel Market belongs to a wider urban and historical landscape that becomes clearer when the surrounding streets are explored on foot. Materials, scale and the relationship with nearby landmarks provide more context than a quick exterior photograph of Carmel Market alone. A slower approach also leaves room to distinguish active local use from the parts intended for sightseeing at Carmel Market. Approaching Carmel Market through its surrounding district helps explain why the site occupies this particular part of the city. Visitors can compare the main structure with neighboring streets, changes in ground level and the wider skyline around Carmel Market.

Useful to know

• Check current site conditions before setting out, especially around holidays, services or special events.
• Keep the visit in the same geographic cluster as nearby stops; cross-city transfers can take longer than the map suggests.
