In most mediterranean countrys like Israel (and Greece), the first days of January was really "hot" even in my country; instead now the temperature is 10 C (exactly now)
Very nice photos btw

Makes me feel quite envious. We've just had our coldest winter since 1963! Great photos.

More than 90% of the world's population lives in the northern hemisphere, what can we do? :(

water temp now is around 20C which is great for Europeans who r used to much colder temps :)

there are some older parts... around the city centre there are quite a few historic buildings that were built a 100 years ago... but if you're talking about older stuff, then Old Jaffa is much older :)
