About Lebanon
 
Located on the Mediterranean Sea, Lebanon has a surface area of 10, 452 square kilometers, with a population of 3.7 million people. An ancient land, Lebanon features in the writings of Homer and in the Old Testament. Its cities were major outposts and seaports in Phoenician and Roman times, just two of the great civilizations that touched this important Middle Eastern crossroads.
The cities and ruins of Anjar, Baalbeck, Byblos, Tyre and the Qadisha Valley/Cedars Forest are listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites.
Lebanon’s capital city is Beirut, a vibrant, stylish metropolis, with all of the fun, fashion, and flair that a city lover might seek. All over the city, modern buildings are springing up, alongside arabesque Ottoman and French-style buildings, giving Beirut a unique style that is all its own.
Perched on the shore of the blue Mediterranean Sea, Beirut has a mild climate that is perfect throughout the year. Beirut has something to offer everyone, from shopping at elegant shops, to exploring the treasures of the country’s National Museum, to dancing the night away at a trendy club, or just hanging out at open air cafés.
On the Eastern side of the country are the mountains with many rivers.
In winter, the high peaks are blanketed with snow. The Bekaa Valley is the country’s main agricultural region. Located between the country’s two mountain ranges, the river-fed Bekaa supports the production of tomatoes, potatoes, wheat, olives, and grapes.
A visit to Lebanon is full of adventures: Savor delicious foods in the energetic, urbane environment of revitalized Beirut; explore a diverse and beautiful landscape; marvel at archaeological wonders that are windows to the cradle of civilization; and simply enjoy the welcome of a people who are hospitable, friendly, and gregarious.
