Tel Aviv, Israel: HaTachana + Soho; things to do

HaTachana  

Situated between Jaffa and Neve Tzedek.  The former Tel Aviv-Jaffa train station is now an up-market shopping and entertainment center.  The shops are not in an enclosed mall, but rather spread out in a series of small buildings. 

At one bright shop, Soho, it’s all about the design.  Many items displayed are designed, and some are produced, in Israel.  Most notably, the red “Hotman pot trivet” (which I purchased and enjoy as a souvenir) and “Key Pete.”  Designer Shahar Peleg says, “You know you’ve made it when the Chinese start copying your design.”
