    Local Customs: Church of Jounieh
  • Tip Rating:
  • This is an out side view to the Mother of God Church in Jounieh.
    Very beautiful church and in a very beautiful location!
    I am not religious but some how some way I like all the holly places, of any religion.
    Paradox huh!

    Local Customs: Sidon
  • Tip Rating:
  • An important seashore city, in the south west coast of Lebanon!
    Over 600,000 of population,
    Sidon has a very beautiful Citadel to be visited,
    And it was in the pages of the art and pictures of many foreign artists during different years of its history, Sidon is really a worth must see activity in Lebanon.

    Local Customs: Poseidon
  • Tip Rating:
  • The statue of the gorgeous Poseidon the God of seas and Oceans is placed between the passages of the 2 parts of Jeitas cave, the upper and lower caves,
    Great place to have a rest and eat something and wait for the small funny train to lead you down to the lower cave from the upper one!
    Tourists like me adore having a great picture with Poseidon.

  • Tip Rating:
  • Yeah this is a view of how it looks like,
    Check it in an enlarged view:
    The green mountains behind, and surrounded by Buildings of the modern city of Beirut,
    Great memories of that place!

    Local Customs: LOL
  • Tip Rating:
  • Hee hee I told my daddy who was smiling all the time of my no trustable look in my face during the climbing trip to the mountain in the Tele ferric:
    "You can laugh as much as you can, but I believe that a human life is the most value thing he has".
    He laughed and told me that I am right,
    Well I can not do anything with my fear of high places like Plane or Tele ferric, I always argue: "give me a Para shout and I won't be anxious" LOL

    Local Customs: Street
  • Tip Rating:
  • The main street of the centre down town of Zahle!
    It is a continuing way to the long street of the shops.
    But with the square yard and the clock and fountain in it, but surrounded also by houses and shops and magazines.

    Local Customs: Luxury
  • Tip Rating:
  • And some where in the Eastern part of the city of Zahle there are streets and areas of Luxury.
    Hotels near the rich new modern region with the beautiful view of the red breaks ceiling!
    Swimming pools and so!
    It is really a beautiful city.

    Local Customs: Buildings
  • Tip Rating:
  • Just like in Jbail, Zahle has the 2 kinds of styles of buildings: the old and modern!
    But a moment of difference between the 2 cities is that Zahle has much more old buildings and even sometimes ancient houses and buildings!
    And that is what most of the tourists like to see.

    Local Customs: Bardouni River
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Bardouni River is the famous river of all the region of Bekaa and it is running and passing through Zahle and making it another beautiful green city in Lebanon!
    Also people and tourists enjoy the beautiful views near the River in the cafés and restaurants placed on the River side.
