Justin Bieber arrives in Israel

Canadian teen pop sensation Justin Bieber arrived in Israel early Monday ahead of his Tel Aviv concert. 

Bieber, 17, landed at Ben-Gurion Airport at 3:15 am after visiting Milano and making a short stop in Frankfurt. 

The teen idol arrived in the Holy Land with his family members and a significant number of crew members and security guards, and is currently staying in a hotel in Tel Aviv. 

He originally booked four different hotels in Tel Aviv and one in Jerusalem in order to escape his fans. 

Going out for dinner

 

After spending the morning in his hotel room, the singer visited a Tel Aviv beach with his parents and crew members, played the traditional "matkot" (paddleball) game, rode a motorcycle and had a late lunch.

In the evening he put on a white jacket, a tie and a pair of jeans and went out with his family for dinner at a restaurant near the beach. 

Attacked by screaming fans outside hotel

Bieber, who will perform at Tel Aviv's Yarkon Park on Thursday evening, is expected to stay in Israel until Saturday evening. 

Throughout the week he is planning to tour Jerusalem, the Sea of Galilee, Nazareth and Bethlehem, and will even meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
