Hey all,

I spent 3 too-brief days in Lebanon last summer. Don't worry, I'll be back. There are a few buildings I took pictures of, and I'm curious about what they are:

This is some kind of school:

This is right of Martyrs Square. Is it not being rebuilt on purpose? Is it just another drawn-out property argument? Interesting placement choice for this poster:

I just saw those and didn't know what they were. If anyone knows, I would love to hear it. Thanks guys!

First one is a building belonging to Lycée Abdel Kader, a private French-administrated school. That's where I did my high school btw :)

Like10thousand thanks for promoting the terms "Lebanon" and "Beirut" in a place where they are deeply stereotyped. Return to Lebanon and see more of the most beautiful country in the world. :):):)
