Beirut And Surroundings
Parisian Style, Middle Eastern Flavour
With its beaches and mountains, Beirut makes a wonderful diverse holiday destination. It is a place of natural beauty and interesting heritage. The surrounding ski slopes make a magnificent backdrop to the beachfront city.
Stroll along the Corniche and take in the view of the famous Raouche rock and the Mediterranean. Head 15km north of the city to glamorous coastal resort of Jounieh, described as the 'Monte Carlo of the East'. Catch the cable car up to the top of the mountain to the shrine of "Our Lady of Lebanon" in Harissa. Explore the mysterious network of underground caves with impressive natural formations at the Jeita Grotto and see the remarkable wax statues at the wax museum.
The ski slopes on Mount Sannine are unsurpassed in the region as are the après ski options. For a night of entertainment, head into town to Monot Street and enjoy the pulsating beats of Beirut's nightlife, followed by a tasty 'Fatayer' for breakfast.
