Visiting the old city of Jaffa in Tel Aviv, offers a glimpse of a modern city built among ancient structures. Most memorable was the required climb up hundreds of steps to a panoramic view of the city. The climb offered picturesque stops along the route, and a fair amount of heavy breathing keep up with the young tour guide.
