Gedera, Historical local council in Central District, Israel
Gedera extends across seven hills in the Southern Coastal Plain, reaching an elevation of 60 meters above the Mediterranean Sea level.
The Bilu group established Gedera in 1884 after purchasing land from the French consul in Jaffa, marking it as one of Israel's first settlements.
The population of Gedera includes substantial communities of Yemenite Jews and Ethiopian Jews, creating a varied cultural composition within the town.
The Gedera Mall, which opened in 2007, serves as the primary commercial center for residents and includes numerous shops and dining establishments.
During the British Mandate period, many people visited Gedera as a health destination due to its fresh air and moderate climate conditions.
