Shadows of Tel Aviv: The Underground Resistance Tour
♡ Save
Unite with us to explore Tel Aviv’s secret history! Stroll through its streets and uncover the legacy of the underground heroes who defied the British Mandate 80 years ago. Discover stories of bravery that shaped a nation.
During the tour, we will learn about the historical background of the underground movements. "We will meet prominent and daring commanders," and discuss operational methods that correspond with modern strategy as well.
During the tour, we will stop beside buildings that have survived to this day and serve as silent testimony to the daring operations. We will also pass through the Railway Park, where the historic train to Jerusalem once ran. We will understand the deep connection between the Irgun (Etzel) and Lehi to Tel Aviv and its residents.
We will learn about the British authorities' response, from restrictions and curfews to assassinations.
