Foto Friday – Springing and Singing in Tel Aviv

April 1, 2011 - 9:58 PM by

Spring in Tel Aviv is the season when the locals begin shedding their outer layers and taking their pasty, flabby selves out into the sunshine. The perfect time to take a tour of the city, courtesy of the municipality’s website…

We’ll follow musician Uzi Ramirez of local bands Boom Pam and Ramirez Brothers, as he rides the Number 5 minibus down Dizengoff Street. This video gives you the full miniboos experience — including the highly developed system of passing change from the driver to the passengers in the back seat.

Once we hit Dizengoff Center, let’s disembark and walk up King George Street to the Gan Meir park, named for the city’s first mayor…

As night falls, let’s accompany singer Akuka as she wanders through beautifully refurbished Bialik Square.

The music videos are part of the Indie-City project, a co-production of municipality and Israel Channel 8 that presents musicians performing on the city’s streets, parks and boulevards. More can be found on the Tel Aviv-Yafo municipality’s YouTube channel.

    2. Nice post. Love these videos – they are such a great idea. But what a shame they didn’t do them in English as well!
