Ha Pisga Gardens, Tel Aviv, Israel

Photo: Aerial view of Tel Aviv coastline

The city of Tel Aviv, Israel, radiates from the Saint Pierre Church, nestled in the city's Ha Pisga Gardens. Formed in 1950 by the merging of the ancient port of Jaffa with the then-suburb of Tel Aviv, Israel's largest urban center is home to more than three million people, most of the country's industrial plants, and its only stock exchange.
