We’ve been hearing a lot lately about Tel Aviv as a travel destination (read our posts if you don’t believe it). Ynet today picks up on the trend as well. Here’s an excerpt for consideration.

It is somewhat out of the ordinary for the New York Times Travel section to devote three feature articles to a single city within a three-month span. It would be even more surprising if the pieces focused on a city other than the world’s established tourist capitals. Yet, it has happened – to Tel Aviv.
Last month, the Times devoted an additional article to Tel Aviv, noting that it has become one of the world’s cultural capitals, especially for the plastic arts. This article joins a stream of pieces, published during the past year in leading American newspapers and magazines, which paint Israel – particularly Tel Aviv – as the “next hot destination” for culture, lifestyle, tourism, fashion, and architecture.

Check out Ynet for the rest of this article.
