Tripoli Castle
Away from <a href="http://www.virtualtourist.com/m/.133814/1583/?s=x">Beirut</a>, I only visited Tarablus/Tripoli, which was a bit of a shame. I would have loved to have spent more time exploring the coast, and maybe make a detour into the mountains, but time, money and snow put paid to that idea! But Tripoli (known is Arabic as Tarablus) is a beautiful old city with lots to see...for me, this was more "authentically Lebanese" than Beirut.

If you're interested in learning Arabic, please see my <a href="http://www.virtualtourist.com/m/.133814/7/?s=Q">Middle East</a> page for details.

Pros:"Well preserved old city with a nice seaside suburb"
Cons:"sights are spread out and the city has a confusing layout"
In A Nutshell:"A great city to escape to if Beirut becomes too much!"
