This restored home and library of Chaim Nachman Bialik (1873-1934), Israel’s national poet, contains 94 books he wrote with translations in 28 languages.
Very well maintained old museum. Located on a private street, amongst many homes. Contains many vintage papers, art work and iconic items from long ago. Everyone is eager to assist and very hospitable. At night the building is lite in blue and pinks colors.

In Greek mythology, Andromeda was chained to this rock just off Jaffa Port and rescued from crtain death by Perseus.
The rock itself is somewhat nondescript, but I wouldn’t like to be chained up there, as Andromeda reputedly was, accordingly to Greek Mythology. The views out to the gorgeous, azure blue sea surrounding the ancient, biblical port of Jaffa are never disappointing and it’s worth spending a few moments pondering on what happened there all those thousands of years ago.
