Lebanon

Lebanon is a small, mountainous country on the eastern Mediterranean with a rich mix of cultures and a famous cuisine. Beirut combines a lively nightlife and restaurant scene with the scars of its recent history. The Roman temples of Baalbek, the Phoenician port of Byblos and the old port town of Sidon with its Crusader sea castle are among the oldest sites of the region, and the Qadisha Valley shelters ancient monasteries below groves of cedars.

Ski slopes lie within an hour of the beaches.
