1 Best Sight in Eilat and the Negev, Israel

Located in Beersheva's Old City, this handsomely renovated structure—once home to an Ottoman Mandate–era governor—houses rotating exhibits of classic and modern Israeli art, as well as works by international artists. In summer, it hosts live concerts in its sculpture-laden courtyard. In the same area is the Museum of Islamic and Near Eastern Cultures, set in a 1906 mosque.
