שוק הפשפשים תל אביב
Sprawling bazaar of covered alleys and verandas trading antiques, vintage finds, and street food since Ottoman times.
This guide to the Jaffa Flea Market in Tel Aviv starts with an eviction disguised as urban planning: Ottoman officials tearing out the market's original site near Clock Tower Square in the late 1800s to build an administration compound, pushing merchants into these alleys instead. It follows the pilgrims who kept the relocated market alive, arriving through Jaffa Port bound for Jerusalem and buying Turkish cloth and Greek goods on their way through, and one bakery nearby that has kept baking under the same family since 1879. Look up at the covered walkways and verandas the British built out almost a century ago, still standing over the stalls today.
