Bat Yam, Coastal city in Tel Aviv District, Israel

Located on the Mediterranean coast, Bat Yam stretches along 3.2 kilometers of shoreline and connects to Tel Aviv-Yafo on its northern border point.

Founded in 1926 as Bayit ve-Gan by 24 religious families, the settlement was evacuated during the 1929 Arab riots before being resettled in 1931.

The municipal museum displays regional artifacts while the Sholem Asch House preserves the residence of the notable Yiddish author who lived in the city.

Six public beaches line the Mediterranean shore, with designated swimming areas and a seaside promenade connecting the entire waterfront section.

The city functions as the central hub for Israel's printing and publishing industries, while also maintaining substantial beverage manufacturing operations.
