Tel Aviv was founded in 1909 and was built on the sand dunes north to the ancient port city of Jaffa. Its style was tailored to the needs of its residents and the climatic conditions of the region.
In 2003 UNESCO, the United National Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, pronounced "The White City" an area located between Allenby Street in the south and Ibn Givrol in the east, the Yarkon River in the north and the Mediterranean Sea in the west, as a World Cultural Heritage Site. By this announcement, the world recognized the special architectural qualities of the building and streets of Tel Aviv which were designed by Jewish architects, who had studied in Europe before immigrating to Palestine, which later became the State of Israel.
