The Flea Market (Shuk Hapishpeshim)

Jaffa's Flea Market is where you can find anything from a dress, through fabrics, up to antique tables and chairs, or maybe just a 16th century door knob.

The Flea Market in Jaffa is one of the more charming places to walk around. The real day of activity is Friday, when all the shops take out their merchandise on to the street. French sofas, an old shawl, a carved table and pillow covers from India, Judaica, old enamel kitchenware, antique clocks and what not. You could probably find anything here.

The prices aren't as low as you might expect and haggling is a must (watch Monty Python's "The Life of Brian" for some haggling guidance), but you don't really have to buy anything to enjoy a visit.

When you are there, you can stop for a coffee or a bite to eat in Pooa or Shama (3 Rabi Nachman St. (03) 518-7599), charming little places hidden in the market's allies.

Address: between Jerusalem Boulevard and Yeffet St.
