Jaffa Slope, Public park in Jaffa district, Tel Aviv, Israel.
Jaffa Slope is a public park built on sloped terrain that creates multiple levels and offers views toward the Mediterranean Sea. The layout connects the upper residential sections with the lower port area through various pathways, with different sections shaped by the natural incline.
The park was established in 2010, transforming an underused hillside into a planted public space. This project enhanced the connection between the ancient harbor district and modern Tel Aviv by making the slope accessible and usable.
This is where residents of Jaffa gather to spend time together, especially on weekends and during local holidays. You will see people walking, picnicking, or simply sitting to enjoy the view and the rhythm of neighborhood life.
Multiple entrance points along the slope allow access from both the upper and lower areas. The terrain is walkable throughout, though the incline may be challenging for those with limited mobility.
The slope creates natural alcove-like spaces where you can watch both the sea and port activities happening below at the same time. This unexpected vantage point lets visitors experience two different worlds from a single spot without needing to walk far or change location.
