Wordless Wednesday #27 "Exploring Lebanon"

Today's Wordless Wednesday is all about Batroun, a coastal town in Lebanon you will fall in love at first sight, a real treasure of the first civilizations, among them the famous Phoenician Wall. 

For sea lovers, Batroun is a real bliss to enjoy the crystal clear waters and the white pebble beaches of the Mediterranean Sea.

I'm not a beach lover so I was more excited to find out Batroun's cozy narrow streets, biking routes and old souk (the local stores and cafes). 

We were also lucky to discover Lebanon's most famous brewery " The Colonel Beer" and most importantly to taste the lemonades made by the hospitable and sociable locals. BTW in 2012, Batroun entered the Guinness Book of World Records for the largest cup of lemonade which weighed 5,543 liters.

  1. Beautiful place to explore and to live in! Here, last weekend finally went to a railroad park that we had seen for the 3-1/2 years we lived in Phoenix. Nice to be a tourist and discover things tourists pay money to come and visit.
