Even in a tough place like this, you meet friendly people! I plan to go back to this area during the day to show some of the amazing food you can find here from all over the world. Hope you enjoyed!
Last night I watched a video about a bad neighborhood in Philly that was really shocking. Tonight the worst neighborhood in Tel Aviv, is like any normal city in the US.
@@phl2443 it was about the Kensington area of Philly. About the drug called Tranq, and how it turns people into zombies. Tranq is fentanyl and horse tranquilizers mixed together and it’s destroying lives. It’s so dangerous in that neighborhood lots of people die every day from both overdose and gang violence.
Its always interesting to see slums in the developed world. Usually people don’t believe me when I say that my country (Canada) has some really bad slums. It’s not too hard to find 3rd world living conditions in the developed world
Indeed, the worst place in Tel Aviv (I live there). How many street shooting in a year? Zero. How many people being mugged on gunpoint? Zero. How many women raped on a side street? Zero. You can be a lone woman and still walk your dog there at night. Tel Aviv, one of the best, safest, and most fun party beach cities in the world.
It's actually nice. I wouldn't mind living there based on the video. There are people walking their pets and almost no homeless people on the streets. Israel has a low crime rate.
i have to tell you those slums are looking much better then they used to be, i remember i used to walk there after work to catch the mini busses that are nearby in 2014 and that place and those alleys were filled with rats running around every corner, people screaming, moaning sounds and a lot of shady people in every corner.
I was once in this area, and a woman told me that she hadn't eaten for several days and had children at home, etc. She wanted money for food, so I told her, no problem, I'll buy you whatever you want, meaning there's a store here and I'll buy you whatever you need. She insisted that she wanted money, and I told her no, I only buy food. So she left. But another time, there was a man who really asked for money for food. I told him I'd buy him some, and he came with me to the store, and we bought food together.
End of the seventies this was a fine, very lively typical working class area with old fashioned Berlin type of apartments. I had friends living there and loved it. It was before the then new Busstation was even build and we still had the old Tagana haMerkazi. A totally messy overcrowded noisy full of oriental music and food stands square with bus platforms and surrounding streets used for busstops and shops everywhere. SO atmospheric and walking distance to the center. It was all abandoned late nineties and later demolished. Times gone by. In those days one could rent an apartment in good north part of Tel Aviv for a few hundred dollars. Wages were very low then. שלום
Sorry to disappoint you, but that's not "slums"... LOL The Slum of Israel looks like high-end neighborhood compared to the slums we have here in the USA... Tel Aviv slum looks clean and safer... I live in San Francisco, and our slum neighborhood is called "Tenderloin"... It is literally a cesspool of homelessness, crime and human feces are everywhere on the streets!!! Your video made me laugh! I would live there!
Our slumhole on the east coast is Washington DC. People live in a huge White House, on Capitol Hill and Potomac Falls. It’s disgusting and so are the people.
Cause South of Tel-Aviv is far from being "the worst slums in Israel" I can guarantee you that some neighborhoods on the south cities of Israel are far worse than the slums of San Francisco
Its not look like slum, it's clean area no garbage, compare to other states slums. Should see slum in Europe, USA, South America states, other Middle East region like Jordan, Istanbul,Asia like Insia, Bangladesh, Pakistan.
A Jew who served in the Turkish army. Normally, only Muslim Turks choose the military profession. Jews and other minorities join the army just to complete their compulsory military service, but as far as I know, no one chooses it as a profession, until I saw this video of yours. I have to say I was quite surprised.
Been here in 2015 walked around with a friend, you had to be with eyes open i remember in this neighborhood, thank you for showing and reviving this memory of the neighbordhood near the bus station! Toda
@gurcharankalra1657 who told you everyone in Israel get monet from the government? Only the poor receive government assistance. But those living in this area are mostly ilegal migrants. Apart from some medical help they don't receive other assistance.
@@reunier1 oh is it? My friend is a Russian jew met him in goa .. seen him get money and this is what he told me... he some ashkanazi jew. I always thought all Israeli get money from government... thanks for letting me know its not true..
I think the mix of Turks, Filipinos, Chinese and more is as home feeling as ever. And the bad side of town looks slum like, but still was nicer than many places in the US too. I want to visit.
I keep watching videos like this of people going to “bad areas” out of curiosity and I commend your bravery but I’m also very envious because I wouldn’t be able to do any of this as a queer solo female.
Man , I loved that video, it was like an adventure, because you All guys were brave , because you all guys went to explore The unknown Places without being scared. I love Israel 🇮🇱 one day I’m going to visit this beautiful country, also The Turkish guy was a real good man , taking you guys in a little tour & also I can till He loves Israel 🇮🇱 maybe he is a refugee or asylum seekers in Israel, I hope he get his permanent resident card in Israel soon , Peace & Love from California USA 🇺🇸 I’m Egyptian American moved to USA 2011 I still Consider My self an immigrant too even I’m U.S Citizen.
There isnt enough chinese in Israel for a proper chinatown, but many shops in tel aviv, chinese usually come here as construction workers, and more might come because of the war and lack of arab construction workers.
I live in America $850 for a room!!! A ROOM!!! In downtown looks like this I make money but minimum wage is $7.25 . Can’t wait to go to Israel! I’ve gotten attacked 3 times in 24 hours. Twice by drug addicts while walking and once by a drug addicts dog. It’s wild…. Honestly this isn’t bad 😂 and cheaper lol
Worth saying that while Neve Shaanan is one of the most famous slums in Israel, it is by no means the worst slum in Israel. Juarish neighborhood in Ramla springs to mind as a far worse example.
Hey! I wanna ask, can you visit Gaza (Gaza, the city) as an Israeli? You know, right now? Or that you have to wait till the war's over so that you can visit it? Just asking.
I think this area is alright just during the morning, I used to go here often. I do notice that a lot of migrants work here, yeah. My mom bought me a Playstation 5 in the Central Bus Station's shitty mall along with a nice video game. I tend to avoid Tel Aviv Central Bus Station because it's now disgusting, revolting and most stores are closed, but sometimes I go there to buy Filipino pork BBQ.
That looks way better than any city in California. Mexico seems way more dangerous too. Interesting experience with the Turkish business owner. I’ve had encounters with Turkish people in the US. Most own businesses, and are EXTREMELY friendly and gracious people. Seeing it in other countries really reinforces that stereotype of the average Turkish expat being extremely friendly and successful.
That Turkish guy talking nonsense and swearing whole the time like a female and think like he have the best life in there sitting and drinking all day alcohol, but i like the way that you keep trying to stop him talk shit in your film
Israel is undeniably an apartheid state, with much of the ruling elite (mainly Ashkenazi Jews) pushing for a "Greater Israel." But if you dig a little deeper (thanks to Insightful Nomad!), you'll find Tel Aviv has some truly gritty, funky, and fascinating neighborhoods, full of unique people and eclectic food. Anyone from an East Coast city in the U.S. would easily spot the similarities with the more offbeat side of Tel Aviv.
The people who use public transportation are the poor. It was planned very bad in the 60th like a labirint - the buses on the roof (there is a bridge) and the shops in the basement. People are coming to the bus platforms on the roof to change buses but not going to the abandoned shops in the basement accept the poor people of the neighbourhood who choose to live there because it's cheap and next to public transportation.
Even in a tough place like this, you meet friendly people! I plan to go back to this area during the day to show some of the amazing food you can find here from all over the world. Hope you enjoyed!
this guy is amazing he must film
in a movie
by the way the Turkish man is amazing
Very disrespectful & unfair to show lady requesting change
For the first time in my life watching youtuber doing the other side of israel.. Thank you. Mlove from malaysia land of peace..
Thank you!

Which video on Philly??
@@phl2443 they'll be referring to the Kensington neighbourhood videos which are saturated on RUclips. There are worse gang hoods in Philly

That's not rough really . North America and Europe is way worse .
True

I believe you. It’s even worse in the U.S
Depends where ur from
In montreal u have good places
Diont call canada developed anymore.canada is now officially a 3rd world, Thanks to your handsome cute PM and yaara sacks and freeland
Having running water and a working toilet is a luxury, even if everything else is bad.

You don't live near the old bus station. Tistemi et hapeh.
There's a RUclipsr called Coco girl who says assault on women is common? I'm not saying she is right, probably lying, but I wonder what the truth is?
@@waitaminute2015she is not lying. Everyone’s mileage is going to vary
Unless your Palestinian 🤔
@@wiggy5728 Nothing to do with palestinians rofl , stop bringing them up in everything Israel lol, world doesn't surrounds them.
It's actually nice. I wouldn't mind living there based on the video. There are people walking their pets and almost no homeless people on the streets. Israel has a low crime rate.
Hi I am from Sri lanka❤
Its unsafe .
@@dreambigger3201 come to any big city in America. It's filthy and dangerous .
“…has a low crime rate.” Not counting genocide.
Ofc you wouldnt live there.... no one wanna live there.
Slums are some of the most vibrant and friendly places. But, unfortunately, poverty comes with many other negative side effects.
Like your work,keep it up!
I loved the Joseph parts. What a friendly cool turkish guy! Respect.
Amazing content there giving me a new insight of migrant workers at tel aviv and the people in particular good job 👍

The rats are still there, but you are right there are less homeless people and junkies than there used to be

Wow I'm from Israel and got creeped out by this video. So you say it's a good place compared to some parts of the US. Wow.
Downtown San Francisco, Los Angeles Seattle, are really worst, even the streets in this israeli "slum" looks relatively clean
@@jorgitogrande so I hear. It’s gotten really bad in the U.S
I used to live in that neighborhood. It's the safest slum in the world, imo. There is no country like Israel
the phillipino bar with karaoke was so beautiful ☺🤭😵💫👀
Filipinos are the friendliest people I ever met God bless them
Filipinos are wonderful people .
The drugs make me so absolutely sad
hhaahhaha，as a Chinese, I am sosososo surprised by that "wanted" Chinese poster. hahahah. 有意思！！
哈哈，我朋友告诉我以色列没有很多中国人，但是看起来他说的错了。以色列可能没有唐人街，但是有很多不合法的华人的移民。我要去

Its not clean lil bro.😂
Thank you for showing this video. I never thought that I would see such a place in Israel. Interesting. God Bless you and keep you safe.💗💗💗

Can’t afford it (:

Quite interesting 🤨
Thanks for the video 👌🏻
You’re awesome 🙌

Didn't know Israel accepted foreign workers,would have loved to have known years ago.
Many yes. South Asia and Africa in particular
a lot of them are illegal refugees
I heard all israeli people get money by the government every month.. if that's true then why the homelessness and poverty?

This is a very important video, good job!
I remember when we use to go to shopping to tahana merkazit, it was incredibly cheap, mostly chinese crap, but they had everything.
You are brave... you go all with these people you just meet!
You can tell it’s truly skid row in Israel when everything is closed, no humans walking, and pitch black! I was there it’s the slum of the slums!

Is in the Neve Shaanan street red lights district?
Yes at night

is that the old eged station
bus station. Don't think it was only for Egged
Those guys are funny as hell you are with ! 😆🤣
What’s a red light district?
Type ‘red lights district Amsterdan’ on Google
This is very sad to see.. Nothing light humored or funny about these unfortunate people.. I pray for them and hope for help from the state of Israel..

The Turkish guy is very interesting, never seen any Turkish people here

Only Palestine
Looks alright to be honest
Hey what is the name of this turkish locality?
It’s not a Turkish locality. It’s a neighborhood in Tel Aviv with foreign workers from many places
Al hamdulilah there is no place in Beirut like this.
Bad energy on that Soith telaviv area very creepy and dodgy I remember
it's actually not as bad as it looks, but yeah not safe there
if you walk there before 11pm it's not as bad. they also 2x attracted eyes because of the camera+dog
Yeah Ariel didn't tell me he was bringing his dog...@@rahbeat9785
tel aviv is luxury bro. u went to the one place where they store all the miskenim
Is it easy to stay in Israel?
