Advantages: Lovely place to visit

Pigeon rock Beirut is a very busy city, just like London or even a bit busier (disregarding when London hosted the Olympics of course). Nearly all important "places" such as governmental sites reside in Beirut which explains why most people pr ... Read review

Introduction Winter might be a boring season for some, a season of hibernation for others. However, winter in Lebanon is another story! Spring is around the corner and the weather is getting warmer and warmer by the day. Lebanon, as Medi ... Read review

Your update has improved your review, think more info could still be added, my advice would be to read around and see what is expecting in order to obtain particular ratings by Expired-Account

My mum was born in Lebanon, so I've always wanted to go. Sorry for the low rating but feel more info could be included to improve ratings by Expired-Account

Hi this is a good start but Im afraid it would be more helpful if you could include information about entry costs (if there are any) how easy it was to travel to and from the location etc. I realise that your visit was a while ago but it would be helpful to anyone thinking about visiting to have an idea of that kind of information, or to be directed to somewhere that can provide it.

Hi. I'd love to go to Lebanon, like weetoon, I love Lebanese food too. I'd like to know a bit more about the place though. I think many people have rated it only somewhat helpful because your review is quite difficult to read - there's no punctuation and it reads as just one long sentence. Let me know in my guestbook if you alter it and I will happily come by and re-rate it. cheers, jayne by jayne30165

I have always heard it said that Lebanese people were very urbane. I also love Lebanese food. Your review is not really telling me enough though. It just gives a glimpse of that country and I , for one, would love to hear more from someone who has been there. by weetoon

Advantages: mountain and countryside atmosphere and yet, not too far from the sea shore
Disadvantages: A bit expensive

Faraya is the name of a small mountain village in Lebanon. It is one of Lebanon's tourist citations for many reasons. The first reason that makes it an attraction is the weather. If you are visiting Lebanon in the summer, than spending few days in faraya ... Read review

Advantages: Rich historical and archaeological as well as cultural country
Disadvantages: Not many for tourists, but slightly expensive

The Lebanon may not seem an ideal holiday destination to many, but to some, the idea is rather tempting. Most people are in a sense still frightened, because of the war that tore the country for over 15 years, from 1975 (although some say earlier) until ... Read review
