Probably only in Beirut it’s possible to capture a cathedral, a mosque, a UN truck and a vehicle from the Lebanese army in one shot. This is the appeal of this city. With its overload of energy and emotions, Lebanon is able to make visitors both fulfilled and exhausted.

We have a couple of friends here who adore Beirut. They work on yacht that spends the autumn and winter moored up there and they’re always telling us about the energy there that you mentioned. Would love to go one day.

Beirut is really worth visiting, plus is very close to Turkey, you can easily book a trip. In high season it gets quite expensive, I’ve been told. It’s a very fascinating city, capital of a very fascinating country!
That’s a fascinating collection of elements you’ve combined to really capture the moment here
Thanks Samuel, all Lebanon was heavily militarized, the country is a cluster of cultures and religions, very interesting mix.
Dai commenti e dal post sembra una città da visitare! Stranamente non è pubblicizzata nei media….
E’ molto bella, i media pubblicizzano solo quello da cui possono ricavare soldi.
Bref, une ville magnifique et pleine – parfois contre son gré – de contradictions! Je veux la voir absolument!
A voir!
Interesting photo! I’ve never seen anything like it before.
Only in Lebanon, really!
Congratulation the shot is very beautiful, i think that Beirut is charming city to visit.
Thanks, glad you like it
One of my best friend’s is from Beirut. I hope to visit him there one day. Great shot Angela!
By all means go there, you would take great shots!
Lebanon is very high on my travel list. Seems such a fascinating country.
It’s even close to Europe, highly recommended, it’s very fascinating.
