Ashdod is a very interesting town. When I fly to Israel, I try at least a couple of days to get into this wonderful place.
By itself, the city is not very big, but in it a lot of interesting things.
I want to highlight the embankment and the port, where "rest" a lot of beautiful yachts.
Also, I remember the trading port in which you can buy many cool and high-quality things from the ship for reasonable value from the ship.
Ashdod's beaches I do not quite habit, because There are no waves and waves are very large.
After the Crimean beaches, where there is a waveness everywhere, it is very striking.
Ashdod stores is a separate topic. There eats a central street (I don't remember the name), on which the most interesting shops are located. Most of all remembered "Little Switzerland", where a huge range of sweets from around the world is assembled. And by the way, there are constantly shares (three goods + one as a gift). I can not get out with empty bags from there. I miss everything that I like the eye.
And I really like the vegetation of Ashdod. Especially how it is framed. We look at the trees and bushes and it seems that some kind of wizard tried.
On all streets, cleanliness and order. I somehow did not go through the central streets for the sake of interest, but on the banking. So even the purity is still observed. It is noticeable that people love their city very much.
Ashdod's population is very polite and dirty. I remember how I was afraid of an unfamiliar city for the first time and I was just forced to ask the local population. So almost all helped me and still wanted a good rest. By the way, there are a lot of Russian-speaking among local. They are immediately visible among the indigenous Israelis.
I want to talk a little about Shabbate, which takes place in Israel from Friday evening in the evening of Saturday. Like any other city, Ashdod will fall asleep at this time. Shops do not work, minibuses and cars do not go. People in the streets are having fun, sing songs or pray. Immediately feel all the cohesion of the Israeli people.
In general, I really advise you to visit Ashdod if you gathered in Israel. There you can go to rest for a couple of days or on an excursion!
I am very advised to visit the Salvador Museum Dali. This is an amazing place!
