Lebanon, in the Middle East, is an ancient land which has been crossed by most of the ancient civilisations (Phoenicians, Assyrians, Romans, Arabs, Ottomans...). In its cities, such as Tyre, Byblos, Tripoli or even Beirut itself, you can see relics from antiquity while sitting on a cafe terrace sipping a hot tea and enjoying the sultry climate and genuine hospitality of the Lebanese.
