Holon, Urban center in Tel Aviv District, Israel

Located south of Tel Aviv, Holon extends over 19 square kilometers and contains residential neighborhoods, commercial districts, and extensive industrial zones.

The city originated in 1935 when Jewish immigrants from Łódź established textile factories on sand dunes, leading to its official recognition in 1940.

The Design Museum, Israeli Children's Museum, and Israel Museum of Caricature and Comics form the educational and artistic foundation of the city.

Two railway stations, Holon-Wolfson and Holon Junction, connect the city to Tel Aviv and other major metropolitan destinations in Israel.

The city houses one of only two Samaritan communities in the world, residing in the Neve Pinchas quarter established in 1954.
