Before Covid-19 hit us, I used to go, more or less, regularly to the International Tourism Fair, held once a year for two days, at the Expo Center (Rokah Gardens), in Tel-Aviv. It was quite the event!
The mornings of the two days were for the tourism professionals from the participating countries to connect, establish contact, do business. The afternoons (after 14 o'clock, methinks) were for us, the public. No entrance fee, and that attracted hundreds of people to the pavilions and booths representing the various countries.
One could well spend several hours in an international atmosphere, getting maps and info booklets for free, as well as small souvenirs such as bags, pens, coasters, mini calendars; tasting foods specific to a certain country; watching artistic shows in various languages and styles etc..
I really miss that Fair ,both as entertainment and culture, but since Covid, large crowds still scare me. Besides, this year there's a war going on and who knows what the outcome of it will be. So, probably, no tourism Fair in the near future.
From my visits so far to this Fair (the last one was on February 2019. I wrote a detailed post with pictures on 16/2/2019), I've accumulated quite a lot of maps. Part of them were of great help to me when I travelled abroad. The remaining part , and especially the booklets and leaflets, are a declutter project. Decluttering, as you well know, is never easy.
