The capital city of Lebanon, Beirut is located in the middle of the Mediterranean coast. The city has been destroyed and rebuilt several times, since its being inhabited around 5,000 years ago. This makes Beirut one of the oldest and continually inhabited cities in the world. The city has a hot Mediterranean climate with prolonged summer and short winter months. The locals are warm and friendly. Also, you must try their local cuisine which is beyond delicious. Shawarma is a popular local delicacy that is essentially a wrap made from chicken or beef. Also, do a little research on the local customs and make sure to follow the basic etiquette.
Spring months from March to May are the best for planning a visit to Beirut and exploring the beautiful sights of the city.
We recommend spending two to three days in Beirut to taste everything that the city has to offer.
