The largely progressive city is nothing like its middle eastern neighbours. Beirut is a unique place where you can find a nightclub next to a mosque, a bombed-out building next to a Chanel boutique, a place where Christianity and Islam sit together side by side and share a bowl of hummus.<\/p>\n<p>Due to its past conflict, Lebanon is still feared by many as being unsafe, so a lot of travellers would not consider the country as a holiday destination. This means it has retained a strong sense of authenticity and creates a spectacular atmosphere for those who do choose to venture there.<\/p>\n<p>I ended up going back to Lebanon twice (once was not enough) and had to share a few of my favourite features from this small but dynamic country. Discover your guide to this secret gem of a destination and get to Beirut before everyone else does!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38282\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Baalbek-temple-4.jpg\" alt=\"A Complete Guide To Visiting Beirut, Lebanon\" width=\"1103\" height=\"1654\"><\/p>\n<h3>WHERE TO STAY IN BEIRUT<\/h3>\n<h4>LUXURY HOTELS<\/h4>\n<p>On my first trip to Lebanon, I stayed at the opulent and historic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/lb\/albergo.en.html?aid=1435586&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hotel Albergo<\/a>. A hot spot for the wealthy Lebanese and by far one of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed in.<\/p>\n<p>Spending a night or two here in their luxuriously decorated rooms will have you feeling like a Persian princess. Every detail of their hotel is meticulously thought out right down to the dried rose petals for you to throw in your bath while you soak.<\/p>\n<p>Breakfast on their rooftop terrace is a must and I would highly recommend a sunset alfresco dinner in the same spot for a romantic evening under the stars while the call to prayer tings out over the city. The concierge will also be happy to help you with any further information you need about the city.<\/p>\n<p>Other well reviewed luxury options in Beirut include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/lb\/four-seaons-beirut.en.html?aid=1435586&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Four Seasons Hotel Beirut<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/lb\/intercontinental-phoenicia-beirut.en.html?aid=1435586&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">InterContinental Phoenicia Beirut<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/lb\/louis-v.en.html?aid=1435586&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Louis V Hotel Beirut<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/lb\/le-gray.en.html?aid=1435586&amp;no_rooms=1&amp;group_adults=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Le Gray<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38271 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Hotel-Albergo.jpg\" alt=\"Hotel Albergo room\" width=\"4367\" height=\"2911\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Hotel-Albergo.jpg 4367w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Hotel-Albergo-774x516.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 4367px) 100vw, 4367px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>BUDGET<\/h4>\n<p>On my second trip back to Lebanon I was doing some work for an NGO and needed somewhere a little more down to earth. There are not a lot of hostels in Beirut, which was why I was super lucky to grab a few nights at <a href=\"http:\/\/hostelbeirut.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Beirut Hostel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Famous among backpackers in Beirut, this is not a party hostel but has a welcoming and inclusive vibe, helped by its beautiful communal outdoor seating areas. A great safe space for solo travellers and groups alike, they also give the proceeds of the hostel to an NGO helping refugees in Lebanon.<\/p>\n<p>There is no shortage of stunning, internationally owned, luxury chain hotels in the city, however, I prefer to go local whenever possible and I\u2019m so glad that I did after finding these unique gems! Make sure you book in advance to secure your room in these popular places.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-38661\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hotel-Albergo.jpg\" alt=\"Hotel Albergo room\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hotel-Albergo.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hotel-Albergo-774x516.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"enews-ext-5\" class=\"widget-1 widget-first widget enews-widget widget-shortcode area-arbitrary \"><div class=\"enews enews-2-fields\"><h2 class=\"widgettitle\">Pay Less, Travel More eBook<\/h2><p>Subscribe to get our FREE eBook with tips on saving money when you travel!<\/p>\n\t\t\t<form id=\"subscribeenews-ext--1\" class=\"enews-form\" action=\"https:\/\/form.flodesk.com\/submit\" method=\"post\"\n\t\t\t\t target=\"_blank\" \t\t\t\tname=\"enews-ext--1\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" id=\"subbox1\" class=\"enews-subbox enews-fname\" value=\"\" aria-label=\"First Name\" placeholder=\"First Name\" name=\"firstName\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"email\" value=\"\" id=\"subbox\" class=\"enews-email\" aria-label=\"Email Address\" placeholder=\"Email Address\" name=\"email\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\trequired=\"required\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" style=\"display: none; background-image: url(https:\/\/t.flodesk.com\/utm.gif?r=6090615d568cfe3fdf9991a4)\">\r\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"submitToken\" value=\"54309abe200531ff3fa000a45236f33011502a96b325e402f676235062f5dc511db737d7af9ed794d846313ab25dc284e120219c91823b8f1fb7b41b447335db294b82aec4086551ce75c2a64a61c59ac98cb43912f52c578e238682bcd02912\">\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"DOWNLOAD\" id=\"subbutton\" class=\"enews-submit\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/form>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode --><\/span><\/h6>\n<h3>WHERE TO EAT IN BEIRUT<\/h3>\n<p>The late and great Anthony Bourdain was a huge fan of <a href=\"https:\/\/explorepartsunknown.com\/destination\/beirut\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Beirut<\/a>, so much so it even gained the title as one of his favourite \u201cdouche free destinations\u201d, and it\u2019s not hard to see why. Food is humble, with a homemade feeling, simple but utterly delicious. It\u2019s no wonder that such a small country has such a large reputation for delicious food, and these restaurants will let you enjoy the best of the cuisine.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38281 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Chez-Pepes-Restaurant-Byblos.jpg\" alt=\"Traditional food in Beirut\" width=\"3264\" height=\"2448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Chez-Pepes-Restaurant-Byblos.jpg 3264w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Chez-Pepes-Restaurant-Byblos-774x581.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3264px) 100vw, 3264px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>EM SHERIF RESTAURANT<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.emsherif.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Em Sherif Restaurant<\/a>&nbsp;was undoubtedly the best meal I had while in Lebanon. The service is impeccable, the decor is opulent and the food was drool-worthy. We let the waiter choose a selection of food for us as we were having trouble deciding and we were not disappointed! A must-visit for a special night out!<\/p>\n<h4>BABEL<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.babelrestaurant.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Babel<\/a>&nbsp;is located on the waterfront this is a great spot for those who love seafood and a bustling atmosphere. With both indoor and outdoor seating it\u2019s the perfect place to soak in the vibe of Beirut while enjoying delicious mouth-watering food.<\/p>\n<h4>AL HAMRA STREET<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.co.nz\/ShowTopic-g294005-i2872-k11221019-Al_Hamra_Street-Beirut.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Al Hamra Street<\/a>&nbsp;is a great place for a more local, street food atmosphere check out El Hamra street. This lively street is packed with cool dive bars, English style pubs and of course delicious street food (falafel heaven). It\u2019s also a great area to go out at night and meet the friendly locals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38272 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Eating-in-Beirut.jpg\" alt=\"Lebanese food on table\" width=\"3264\" height=\"2448\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Eating-in-Beirut.jpg 3264w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Eating-in-Beirut-774x581.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3264px) 100vw, 3264px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>WHAT TO DO IN BEIRUT<\/h3>\n<h4>SURSOCK MUSEUM<\/h4>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/sursock.museum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sursock Museum<\/a> is not only houses but some beautiful exhibitions and artworks but is a stunning work of architecture itself. Even better is that it\u2019s free!<\/p>\n<p>My favourite part of the museum was a section detailing the trips of the early European explorers to come to the middle east including some beautiful photos of Lebanon in the late 1800s. After making your way through the museum it\u2019s worth having a drink at their sunny outdoor caf\u00e9 in the courtyard.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-38662\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Sursock-museum.jpg\" alt=\"Sursock Museum\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Sursock-museum.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Sursock-museum-774x516.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>JEITA GROTTO<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/jeitagrotto.com\/\">Jeita Grotto<\/a> is one of the most memorable experiences I have had when it comes to natural world phenomena. Entering these caves is like entering a whole new underground world that looks like something out of a David Bowie, Labyrinth fairy tale.<\/p>\n<p>Stalactites and stalagmites surround you to create the most otherworldly atmosphere that leaves most people speechless. You are not allowed to take photos inside and you will be asked to leave your camera at the entrance, so just be in the moment and enjoy the wonder!<\/p>\n<h4>BAALBEK TEMPLES<\/h4>\n<p>Forget Rome or Greece. For the most jaw-dropping incredible ruins, the <a href=\"https:\/\/whc.unesco.org\/en\/list\/294\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Baalbek Temples<\/a> are where it&#8217;s at!<\/p>\n<p>Baalbek is an ancient Phoenecian city 85 km from Beirut which dates back as early as 3<sup>rd<\/sup>century B.C. The UNESCO World Heritage site is home to the largest noble Roman and temples ever built which are among the best preserved in the world with breath-taking detail and 20 metre high columns still intact.<\/p>\n<p>And what&#8217;s possibly even more incredible is that fact that you will highly likely have this place all to yourselves! You will need to hire a driver or join a tour to get out there and due to its proximity to the Syrian conflict, it may not always be possible to go. But if you can, do not miss it!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38274\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Baalbek-temple-2.jpg\" alt=\"Baalbek Temples\" width=\"1202\" height=\"802\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Baalbek-temple-2.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Baalbek-temple-2-774x516.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1202px) 100vw, 1202px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>HELABI BOOKSHOP<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.co.nz\/Attraction_Review-g294005-d11978324-Reviews-Halabi_Bookshop-Beirut.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Helabi bookshop<\/a>&nbsp;is a 70-year-old bookshop located near the Palestinian refugee compound has become an institution in Beirut. Packed with books from floor to ceiling you will want to stay in the cosy atmosphere and chat to its owner Abdallah forever. He\u2019s normally happy to meet people all over will probably offer you a cup of coffee and a chat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38275\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-Helabi-Bookshop.jpg\" alt=\"Man in Helabi bookshop\" width=\"1100\" height=\"1649\"><\/p>\n<h4>CHATEAU KSARA<\/h4>\n<p>If you\u2019re keen on trying some Lebanese wine then <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chateauksara.com\/en\/visit-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chateau Ksara<\/a> is a great stop on your way to the Temples of Baalbek. The Ksara winery offers guided tours of its huge underground roman caves followed by a tasting.<\/p>\n<p>Ksara has been making wine consistently since 1857 and is the country\u2019s oldest winery. I personally wasn\u2019t a big fan of the wine itself, but the experience is the perfect little pick me up for your drive.<\/p>\n<h4>WALK AROUND THE CITY<\/h4>\n<p>Beirut has got to be one of the most interesting cities to just wander around in. The mix of modern building and post-war ruins mixed with street art and funky shops means you can keep exploring forever. In the summer bougainvillaea flourishes in the city, making for some very Instagram worthy moments!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-38276\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut.jpg\" alt=\"Yellow building in Beirut\" width=\"1286\" height=\"858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Beirut-774x516.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1286px) 100vw, 1286px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>HOW TO GET AROUND<\/h3>\n<h4>TAXIS<\/h4>\n<p>Taxis are aplenty and easily found in Beirut. You can choose from a shared taxi called \u201cservice\u201d where the cost is divided among the passengers or a private taxi. Let the driver know which you would like when getting in the taxi. A taxi around anywhere in the city should not cost you more than 10,000 LBP (~$7 USD).<\/p>\n<h4>PRIVATE DRIVER<\/h4>\n<p>On my first trip to Beirut, we hired a private driver for a few days. It was a great way to see the country in comfort with the added bonus of having an experienced and knowledgeable local who was also able to act as our guide. If you\u2019re looking for a relaxed holiday, I would highly recommend this.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-38663\" src=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Baalbek-temple.jpg\" alt=\"Baalbek temple\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Baalbek-temple.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/wearetravelgirls.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Baalbek-temple-774x516.jpg 774w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>OUTSIDE OF BEIRUT: BYBLOS<\/h3>\n<p>If you want somewhere even more relaxed than Beirut, then Byblos is the perfect seaside escape.
