MITF TFS – Rishon LeZion

Rishon LeZion (The First to Zion) is the fourth largest city in Israel, with thriving metropolitan centers, parks, cultural areas, and an active nightlife. From its early days as the first settlement established by the immigrants of the First Aliyah back in the late 1800s until now, the city has rapidly grown, offering an urban lifestyle with plenty of shopping centers, restaurants and bars, parks and the beach, while still maintaining a strong sense of community. The city borders some of the most beautiful Israeli beaches, is centrally located and is only 7 miles from Tel Aviv.
