HaTachana (Old Jaffa Railway Station)
מתחם התחנה
The 1892 starting station of the Jaffa–Jerusalem railway, restored into a leisure complex with historic railway cars, shops, and restaurants.
HaTachana was the Jaffa station of the Jaffa–Jerusalem railway (1892), the first railway in the Middle East. After years out of service, it was restored and reopened in 2010, preserving the station building, warehouses, and historic railway cars. Inside, you will find design shops, cafés, restaurants, and exhibition halls, and markets and events are often held on weekends. Entry is free, and most shops also open on Saturdays. Located between Neve Tzedek and the beach, it works well as part of a walking route.
Opening hours
About 10:00–22:00 (varies by shop)
