Last Saturday I played the tourist in my own country with the summer hat and
the backpack, and went to visit Jbeil with some friends. What a beautiful
region. I went there a few times when I was younger but I never realized its
true beauty until last Saturday.
As we arrived, my friends and I had a typical Lebanese lunch on the seaport. We went then for a walk in the old souks but we were too lazy to walk so we took a little tourist open bus. The cool thing about Jbeil is that you don’t only have a beautiful museum and the old souks, but you also have the beach! So of course we went for a walk on the beach and couldn’t help it to jump in the waves like small kids.
The natural beauty of Lebanon is being ignored because of its political situation. Lebanese people are traveling for vacations while they don’t even visit their own country. I really encourage each one of you to take time to discover your own territory (whether it’s Lebanon or not) because every state has hidden natural treasures.
This is what other countries thought about Jbeil:
