Beirut
Bustling capital on the beautiful Mediterranean. Beirut has anything you wish for on material and cultural level. As for landscapes and nature get out of this lively city and head for the countryside. It’s not exactly a beautiful city, lots of concrete and high flats, but it has a lot to offer: great museums, great entertaining, great people, great clubs and utterly great restaurants (don’t miss out on dinner at Leila’s while in Beirut. Seriously don’t, it’s so yummy!!)
Beirut is also a city of extremes, of old and new, of war and peace, Christianity and Islam, very rich and very poor. I think of Beirut as the city where it all happens and it happens fast, it happens with a smile and a weekly brushing for the ladies. Beirut has a heart. And it’s made of solid gold.
