Kerem HaTeimanim

[1] Kerem HaTeimanim was established in 1906 by Yemenite-Jewish immigrants on lands which belonged to Aharon Chelouche, Yosef Moyal, and Haim Amzaleg.

It was a poor neighborhood, with many of the single-story homes built with cheap materials such as wooden beams and tin roofing.

In 1926, the WIZO women's volunteer organization opened an infant welfare center in the neighborhood operated by two nurses sent to England to study healthcare for young mothers and babies.

[2][failed verification] In the early 1970s, Lehakat Tzlilei Kerem HaTeimanim (Sounds of the Vineyard Band) was formed by Kerem HaTeimanim guitarist Moshe ben Mush and singer Yosef "Daklon" Levi,[3] a band that achieved fame in south Tel Aviv and beyond.

[6] Zohar Argov, a 1980s Yemenite Israeli singer who grew up in Rishon LeZion made an album entitled Bekerem Hateymanim [7] in celebration of the neighborhood's significance for Yemenite Israeli culture.
