Beiruti Zen
Bardo Bar, Hamra, Beirut, Lebanon

Posted: 22 Jan 2008, Region: Middle East

If you haven’t already heard: the Paris of the Middle East has been reborn. And Bardo is our favourite hot new resto-bar that has risen from the rubble... During the day this achingly hip venue is a sanctuary in the heart of the bustling city - think 1950s Egyptian silent films adorning the walls and locals sipping espressos. But as night falls, and the DJ spins his Buddha Bar style mix, Bardo becomes the place to be and be seen. Definitely our favourite Beiruti hangout.

Experience it...
