Very big beautiful park to walk around and enjoy nature, cycle, have a picnic, read a book, etc... includes a lake, with small boats and paddles, a beautiful tropical forest, and old water mills. You could see some fishes, ducks and other animals,
Entry is free, and it's clean. i definitely recommend this place.

Nice park in the city. Has a decent children's playground, pond, outdoor gym, and fenced dog area. The only thing I found was that there was a lot of bird poo on the benches, and they weren't clean to sit on.
Also found a free book library and a little wooden hut, which was full of free baby and toddler clothes and toys.
Toilets available, clean and maintained.

It’s my hangout place after part times to take some rests before go back to regular work🤸🏻🤸🏻🤸🏻…enjoy watching the kids playing all around🫰🥰
This park is so large, it is bigger than Central Park in New York!! There is so much to do here and many activities.
Antiquity. Precious site for meditating. Many fire ants. Wear long clothes or be prepared.
An oasis of peace in the center of Tel Aviv
They have now new playground for kids, nice
It has a playground, ecological pool, small soccer field, and basketball court. ping-pong tables, jungle gym, dog- park, and used books to read or borrow. It serves the neighborhoods surrounding. While it's really needed for a family-friendly area, I find the sand areas not as pleasant as other neighborhood center playgrounds. I wish that there would be more green areas to sit down.
The place was cordon off for constructions. Looks like it will take a few months before it will open to public again.
Iconic place in Tel Aviv. The Ibn gvirol street is a busy and popular street to visit. The place is hosting big events.
A very long narrow park. Peace and cleanliness attract many people here.
Huge park in Tel Aviv. A great place to relax and walk. A large number of different animals, especially at night. The park has a lot of entertainment and sports grounds. At any time of the year here you can find something to do.
Kids enjoyed. Safe and clean enough. Secure and shaded.
יפה, לא מטופח במיוחד, נראה טיבעי לגמרי.
Expansive beautiful park not too far away from the downtown city. Plenty of options including interesting attractions like a ropes course, hot air balloon. Tons of walking and biking trails as well as plenty of greenery and flora/fauna to take a break and relax in.
Just wonderful, A lovely park along the old railway line. A walking track and bike tracks along it. On its sides there is grass and benches and interesting buildings. a magnificent promenade, great coffee and sandwich shops, great kid's attractions, and a beautiful important connection between tel Aviv and Jaffa. A beautiful narrow walkway from the beach area to the heart of Tel-Aviv. Very recommended for picnics. Well-kept, a great track east of the beach in Vacha Jaffa.
Nice little playground. Everything is new and there's a gate and shade too. A cozy, small and clean playground. Nice and quiet place to relax in the shade while the kids are playing. Good playground and exercise groups for adults. Very nice for parents, kids need more interaction.
...is sadly under construction, so it's not a great time to visit. But I did like the alleyway on the east side
It was disorganized and expensive. The employees were friendly. However, they seemed under trained for their positions. Even for the rest stop price, it was high. Clean restroom and lots of sitting options.
You can hike along Hayarkon while staying close to the trail. There are also seating areas riverside if you need to catch a breath. This river attraction is located at a National Park with more things to do like the Rock Garden with live Cactus and a bird observatory.
Nice area where to walk, run or ride a bike. There are some coffee shops / restaurants around so a good option to have a nice meal also.
Places like this should be celebrated inside cities! Long story short, it’s a beautiful park that can offer a great stroll, the ability to do any sport imaginable, and somewhere to relax and enjoy your peace of mind! Give it a go!
The man-made lake is owned by the Park Lake Company Inc., whose founders are two school buddies, who got their inspiration from the old Yarkon boating company that existed from 1938 to the late 1960’s, and ran an extensive boat rental and river sailing operation that peaked during the 1950’s, owning 160 rowing boats and 18 big River cruise ships.
During this period, the Yarkon river has witnessed countless marriage proposals and romantic moments. the history surrounding the Yarkon river is quite expansive, including famous battles and cultural events the we will be more than happy to tell you all about in our guided tour.
Unfortunately, the vibrant River boating culture gradually ceased by the 1980’s due to increasing pollution of the River, until the Yarkon river authority was founded in order to solve the environmental damages and stop the polluting activity.
Thanks to extensive efforts, the ecological environment was rehabilitated and the river could one again be used by the public.
The penetration of the Mediterranean Sea water into the River brought forth the existence of a unique ecological habitat, containing both salt and fresh water fish (such as tilapia) along with mixed vegetation and other kinds of fauna.
The first pedal boats were brought from Belgium in 1984, with engine boats being added in 1986.
The lake is also home to different kinds of fish, including Tilapia, Silver Arp And Carp.

Cool area to get away from the city. I didn't go to the boat rides although it might be cool especially for kids. Perfect place to relax, read a book, for dogs and kids and to get away from the city.
Rabin Square (previously called Israel's Kings Square) was named after late Israeli PM Yitzhak Rabin, who was assassinated near that square. Hovering above it, is the Tel Aviv municipality building. I guess this Square is the parallel of Venice's St. Mark's Square or London's Trafalgar Square, only far less impressive. From the square go for a shady walk down Gordon Street towards the Beach and you will find that the Trees have an artistic language all of their own. Big square in central Tel Aviv in front of the City Hall building that is a place for celebrations and protests. Beautiful both during the day and during the night, many great restaurants, cafés, bakeries and bars around.
Cool, park lovely place to visit. Lots of walks and attractions
Beautiful. Fun. Sometimes crowded
Nice little playground. Everything is new and there's a gate and shade too.
Nice place for a walk.
Not too many good places to eat.
Dog friendly.

Great time with the family, the staff were nice and helpful!
Very nice and calm place to have a walk at
Closed and under construction now.
Great location for traveling near the city.
All I can say is wow. This park is great for youngsters to older generation. The park has great coffee shops, seating areas, play areas for kids. The views , nature and space is relaxing and a gem in the heart of Tel-Aviv's hustle and bustle. It is close to the center, Neve Tzedek and American colony.
אחלה מקום שאפשר לשבת לעשות על האש. לשחק כל מיני משחקים ,בעלי חיים גם סבבה
They took out all of the slides and other play equipment. Only swings are left. 😢
Those who know me, are aware that I grew up there. Even before Kikar Levana was constructed. In fact, my friend's dad was one of the contractors there so he let me inside the pyramid. No biggie though.. I just love going there. If it wasn't so dirty, I'd give it Five stars. I was there when the Olive tree got planted.
This park is bigger than Central Park. There is a "lake", and huge swaths of grass where you can just lie down and enjoy the sun/moon. Don't miss out the Tropical Garden, that's a must. Oh and there's the hot air balloon too.
Might be better kept, but all in all, a very nice, quiet and magical place.
היינו בגני הטבע בפעילת קיץ הקרנת סרט ילדים. למזלנו הגענו לפי החשכה. המקום ממש מושלם לאוהבי טבע, הילדים ממש נהנו שם, מלא עציצים, בריכות קטנות מלאכותיות, מפל קטן, ראינו כמה תוקים, ארנבת, צפרדעים ועוד. בטוח שנחזור מספר פעמים. הבנתי שבשתות המקום פתוח והתחל מאוקטובר יהיו גם סיורים מודרכים במקום. ממליצה בחום.
הגעתי עם הילדים היה נהדר

Beautiful large garden with 3 special small garden: the rock, the cactus and the botanic music garden. Very popular place, which barbecue possibility, picnic and different sort of playing area for kids and adults 😀
Great park. Walking along the Yarkon river is a really nice activity. You can rent bikes and boats near the park's pond. A lot of beautiful places to sit and enjoy. A lot of birds to watch. You can even go on a "hot" air baloon ride, although it's really expensive and short
From the square go for a shady walk down Gordon Street towards the Beach and you will find that the Trees have an artistic language all of their own.
night time sometimes homeless dudes hangout, and also occasionally rowdy teens, but mostly it's just a nice little park and during the day it's filled with kids and their parents
It's a nice square. It's big and it used especially for crowds celebrating special national events, or for demonstrations. It's very central, so there are a lot of businesses surrounding it.
A lovely linear park in Tel Aviv, along old railway rails. Lots of benches for sitting, cafes etc.
Surrounded by shops and markets, this is a little oasis from the hustle and bustle of the city. It was a nice place to sit down and enjoy the trees, while also people watching. Its a nice breath of fresh air in the busy city, with lots of park benches.
A hidden gem in southern Tel Aviv. Lots of shade and wonderful breeze on this small hillside.
The pink church is in the middle of a serene zoological garden, with shaded pools (not for swimming) paths and benches. Around the zoological garden, a park with kids playground, picnic spaces, public toilets, room for barbequing (mangal on Hebrew) and even a nice zipline for kids.
Parking is available and free. search for פארק החורשות.

Beautiful park stretching along the Yarkon. Well kept, great for walking, running, cycling and picnics. Only downside - no coffee shops or even vending machines anywhere
Big square in central Tel Aviv in front of the City Hall building that is a place for celebrations and protests. It’s also where big covid testing tents now sit.
Great spot in a very nice park
Beautiful new park in the heart of Tel Aviv. Lots of benches and great places to sit down and chill in the sun. It’s parallel as well to some main streets, so it’s also close by to a lot of places to shop or get a bit to eat. Great also for a family picnic, definitely recommended.
This place is really beautiful and surprising little heaven of nature in the middle of the city with a lot of intresting plants and animals and homeless people. It has all kind of statues and beautiful little ponds. I didnt see so much animals except a police car and there were some intresting birds and was really nice to sit in the nature since we all are locked in at our homes.
Very nice for parents, kids need more interaction.
A new and great park in the heart of the city. Beautiful spot to sit, stroll and have picnics.
A new park built on top the old railway path of the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv train. it’s a perfect walk from downtown to the beach but still missing shaded areas.
Rabin Square (previously called Israel's Kings Square) was named after late Israeli PM Yitzhak Rabin, who was assassinated near that square. Hovering above it, is the Tel Aviv municipality building. I guess this Square is the parallel of Venice's St. Mark's Square or London's Trafalgar Square, only far less impressive. If fact, there isn't much to do here other than visiting the monument. On weekends, families come here for picnics, which is a lovely sight.
Lovely place with geometric statues, nice for photos and for picnic. Plenty of parking places, with Pango.
If you come at sunny day, can be very hot, because white environment reflects the sun.

Big dog Park with all the necessary facilities, very friendly people who love their dogs, with an area for them to play in the sand or concrete. Usually clean and full of great dogs. My favorite dog park that I've experienced in Israel.
This place is a mess ....total construction pit. Tons of traffic and there's nothing to see except rundown buildings. Avoid it like the plague.
גני הטבע בתל אביב הם מקום כמעט סודי ומפתיע שלא הרבה אנשים מכירים... במקור גן בוטני שהתחיל בימיה הראשונים של אוניברסיטת תל אביב וכיום מופעל על ידי מכללת בינה הישיבה החילונית ובאחריות חברת גני יהושע שמאגדת את כל הפארקים הגדולים בתל אביב כולל פארק הירקון-גני יהושע, פארק מנחם בגין והחווה בתל אביב. גני הטבע פתוחים למבקרים כיום (ינואר 2020) רק בשבתות יפות, בהם מתקיימים במקום סיורים למשפחות שמתאימים במיוחד למשפחות עם ילדים קטנים שרוצים ללמוד על הטבע ולהרגיש כמעט כאילו אתם בטיול בגליל רק בלי הנסיעה...
בגני הטבע יש נחלים זורמים בריכות קטנות, ביצות וקטע של יער/חורש. כל אזור בפארק מדמה סביבה טבעית אחרת בארץ ישראל. זה לא ממש גן בוטני רגיל עם שבילים מסודרים וערוגות פורחות אלה יותר גן טבעי שמדמה את הטבע בארץ ישראל. הפארק הוא אחד הוותיקים בארץ והוא הוקם כבר בתחילת שנות הארבעים.
ההרשמה לסיורים דרך אתר גני יהושע - בתיאום מראש בלבד או על בסיס מקום פנוי אבל מומלץ להזמין מקום מראש.
במהלך הסיור עברנו בין מספר תחנות בגן, הילדים למדו על הצמחים על הטבע ובסוף יש גם שעת סיפור קצרה לילדים בהתאם לעונות השנה ופעילויות יצירה. בילוי מעולה למשפחות תל אביביות והסביבה שמחפשות פעילות לילדים בשבת יפה בטבע בלי להתרחק מהמרכז.
מומלץ לגילאי 3 עד 7.

Tour was nice. Cool atmosphere. Can be 45 min tour otherwise gets too long.
הגן נחמד, הכנסיה יפה, הרבה מתקנים לילדים. נקודת טבע מפתיעה בתוך העיר
Very nice place recommended a lot of restaurants and lots of play grounds for kids
Visited with children, first time. Waze leads go the parking which is at the beginning of the way. So it is not convenient to walk to the centre of the park cause it takes 30-40 min. The most interesting things are located near the lake. So it is better to park there. In general park is the same as most parks in Israel. You may take a boat or air balloon and have a fun. There is only one cafe and prices are little bit expensive as for hot dog-pizza style.
Nice urban park commemorating (as Israeli PM Ben Gurion once put it "the only true man in my government") minister and first female PM of Israel Golda Meir.
Lots of greenery surrounding a little lake filled with carps. Children playground makes it an ideal place for locals to have a picnic. Since a lot of people walk their dogs here and not all of them collect, mind your step on the grass ;-) Lovely place to take a breath after appreciating the UNESCO-protected bauhaus neighborhood.

Historical sad memory and tribute for Itzhak Rabin murder , which is at the municipality of Tel-Aviv.
Besides that is a meeting point, especially for shows and holiday events

Often nice place to walk. But almost as often a place with a lot of homeless creapy people around. So for a quick run or walk sure. For family, nah

Big park ideal for kids because of the playgrounds and the fountain full of fishes (which definetely could be taken care of because is dirty) , also to take your dog for a walk they can have a closed space just for them. It's the center for the LGBT meetings.
The grass is not in perfect conditions so is not good if you are planning on laying and relaxing in a nice area.

A lovely and uniqe memorial site built by artist Dany Caravan in 1988 and is called - The White Sq, based on the nickname of Tel Aviv as the White City. The site is dedicated to the founders of Tel Aviv and is located on a hill at the heart of the Wolfson Park, and allow a very beautiful view of the Tel Aviv region. The site has a pyramid and a view tower (which isnt open all the time) and is all white.
In order to get the best view it is better to go up on the monument which is located between the white pyramid and the white dome.
The park has a small lake and playing grounds

Great place to hang out on a sunny day, you can come here with friends or family or your pets and walk around the park. Lot of things you can do, you have lots of opportunities to park all around and the atmosphere is so relax.
It's a very nice well kept public park.Separeted bicikel and walkind paths.Thev park is very well maintained.A lot of garbage bins .Many watering spots.Good entertainment possibilities. Most inportant for walking people the clean and fresh air.
The "Central Park" of Tel Aviv. Excellent bike and jogging paths along the Yarkon River. Extends from the sea up to Ramat Gan and to Bnei Brak - hear the Dan Design Center. There is a possibility to go even further to the sources of the Yarkon in Rosh Ha'ayin.
It's no Zoological any more. There is no animals left. The place of the animals is abandoned for many years already but there's a nice Botanical garden nearby which is kept and saved by young "Bina" community. Hope that in the future with their help and Tel Aviv municipality the Zoological garden will reopen.
Great place to take unique pictures. Lots of photographers come there to take photos.
At first glance this square doesn't seem like much, but the beauty of it is how it blends political significance with everyday life. You can grab a coffee at any of the coffee shops surrounding the square and in good weather you can grab a chair and sit by the pool, and if you happen to catch a political rally taking place there, all the better.
The Meir Garden is a great spot in the middle of the heart of Tel Aviv! It has lots of space for children with a toys for them, space for ping pong and other games, as well as for soccer and a small basketball area. It’s relatively quiet and separated from the noise of cars around.
Nice park
Center park of Tell Aviv and Dan district, you will find every attraction possible, hot air balloon, motor boat, bicycles and if it's not enough you have amusement park. First of all it's a park, lots and lots of open green fields and open spaces. Very recommend in any time of year and day
Very nice and quiet place, has a children's playground, exercise equipment, ping pong tables and a fountain. Lots of shade and greenery.
מקום אחד היפים בתל אביב שווה ביקור
Beautiful place to have a nice picnic, to relax and enjoy some quiet in the city. Great for all ages, has a nice playground and courts for sports activities and accessible.
A great place to visit with the kids for 1-2 hours. A nice view of the city, and the kids can slide down the half bowl.
מקסים. פינה נשכחת ירוקה ומוצלת בדרום העיר. סיור משפחות חינמי כל שבת שנייה על ידי בינ"ה. מומלץ ביותר לאוהבי הטבע.
It’s kind of hard to give a petrol station a bad or good review. We came, we got petrol, we left, without incident.
Kids really enjoy the wooden boardwalk resembling waves. Don't forget to take the kids bike.
Lovely little lake at Hayarkon park. Like during evening. Boating facilities are there.
A cozy, small and clean playground. Nice and quiet place to relax in the shade while the kids are playing. A separate part for small children is a plus.
Central park is here!!! bigger and beautiful more than any other parks in in tlv
Beautiful lake in the park. Many benches along the lake to sit and capture nice photos. There is also boat rentals nearby.
Beautiful vistas of the city of Tel Aviv are available from a couple of the monuments here. Recommended!
