Since Lebanon re-opened it’s doors to foreign visitors having been declared safe for travel, we have been scouring the country for gems, and what gems we have found. In January and February, ski in the Mzaar region, staying in a contemporary hotel complete with a huge pool with mountain views, and nip down to the Mediterranean for some well-deserved rays.
See pre-roman ruins towering above the Baalbek valley, and the antiquities of the bronze age in the city of Byblos, before re-fuelling with a sizzling kebab. Nuzzled in between the mountains and sea, lies vibrant Beirut. See the city’s many hip art galleries, haggle for paintings, engravings and original LPs at Bilal’s street market, enjoy the cutting-edge nightlife, and finally hit the sack at the brand spanking new hotel Le Gray, complete with a 17 metre-long rooftop pool with views of the city. Simply jaw-dropping.
