People travelling to Beirut

Outstanding and mysterious, shady and giving, Beirut is a city which provides and conceals simultaneously.

Bursting with sunshine, Beirut is brimming over with life. From the sea cornice to streets swarming with people, the effervescence is constant. Moreover, Beirut, capital of Lebanon, is also an important money market and business meeting point for all the businessmen of the region.

Beirut is a melting pot of many cultures and shelters an incredible variety of languages, nationalities and religions. Thus, many remarkable contrasts appear in the streets: churches and mosques stand side by side, water pipe smokers of the harbour and peaceful fishermen mix with frenzied jogging and mountain-biking aficionados. In this environment large panoplies of different ways of living co-exists.
