Lebanon

Lebanon is a small but historically rich country located on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea, bordered by Syria to the north and east, and Israel to the south. Known for its ancient history, Lebanon is home to some of the oldest cities in the world, such as Byblos and Tyre, and features remarkable Roman ruins, Phoenician heritage, and centuries-old churches and mosques. Despite its small size, Lebanon boasts a stunningly diverse landscape—from the snowy peaks of Mount Lebanon to the sunny Mediterranean coastline. The country is renowned for its vibrant culture, delicious cuisine, and resilient people, who continue to celebrate life through art, music, and festivals even in times of hardship. Beirut, the capital, is often called the "Paris of the Middle East" due to its historic cosmopolitan atmosphere and lively arts scene.
