  • What have you heard about Beirut and travel in Lebanon these days? I am betting its not the image you had imagined - for better or worse...
    There's delicious Lebanses food (obvs) but there are empty and desolate streets that are quite seriously completely void of life...
    What has happened to Beirut and Lebanon that we hear of and have heard of in the past?!
    Thanks for watching! :)

    The remnants are proof of the rich heritage and a glorious past of this beautiful country. It's sad to realize how much the country has been ruined. Despite all the doom and gloom there are still some nice things to appreciate. 😍 Thank you for sharing Steiners..

    I know it’s a bit sad to see everything abandoned like a ghost town but it wasn’t always like this, hopefully things will go back to normal, for the meantime enjoy Lebanon!

      @Away with the Steiners Lebanon is a country that each season u have it things to do
      Like it's constant non stop of activities in Lebanon
      And each city each town got it kind of tourism area
      It's an old country even me ad Lebanese and I past my life visit each corner and till some places they keep popping up .
      As for food try to make local friends
      So u can eat our food
      Lebanese food is different from many country
      Other countries u can try their food in the restaurant
      Exemple italian food Indian Turkish French
      Lebanese what u each is a restaurant is what we call restaurant food
      What u eat at home is what we call tabekh like ( cooking food )
      It's a country with a rich culinary just as mezzeh we have over than 130 plats
      No counting the main dished , the cooking dish called tabekh.
      Beside each are have their way of making a plate even if they are a next city or next village
      Enjoy ur stay

    11:00 that's the Cathedral of Saint John and Marcus built by the Crusaders .. here's an interesting fact : Byblos is a Christian city with the majority being Maronites (originaly phoenicians who kept worshipping Baal untill the monks of Saint Maroun who were refugese in the mountains made contact, preached and baptised them in the 400s and named their church after their teacher Maroun ) , so when the arab muslims invaded Lebanon in the 7th century and began colonizing the coast the Maronites began resisting the occupation and fighting back , they were however overwhelmed and forced to retreat into the mountains where the muslim armies couldn't pursue them.. they stayed in hiding untill the Crusaders came and freed them , the Maronites joined the Crusades with a force of 40000 warrior ,their faithfullnes to their european brothers throughout the crusades earned them entry to the Catholic church

    My first time was actually during the troubled period. As a child coming from Aus flying in with mum & siblings '81 Christmas/New year ceasefire which could have erupted again at any time seeing the destroyed buildings was surreal never experienced anything like it.
    Experiencing my ancestral home was great but the people experienced terrible times.
    I have relatives there who as Aus citizens refused to leave & still remain there as many Lebanese are desperate to leave nowadays.

    *YES I HAVE!* 🤣 The word "BIBLE" comes from this word. It's an ancient Phoenician city. I think the earliest sample of ideographic alphabet - a Phoenician alphabet - was found here. Ancient Greek alphabet and consequently all modern European alphabets are ultimately based on this ancient semitic Phoenician alphabet.

    Byblos was home to Saint Aquilina the phoenician martyr . Born in 281 A.D inside ancient Byblos , she spent her childhood preaching her Christian faith to kids her age untill the roman Governor Volusian jailed her ,the pagans told her to leave Christ but she refused so they brutaly tortured her , struck her face , stripped and flogged her then drilled her ears with heated iron rods and threw her unconcious body outside the gates to rot , later that night she rose up amd walked back in to Volusians court , he freaked out, accused her of witchcraft and sentenced her to beheading in the morning , before her neck was struck she fell and died , she was 12 years old
