Hey guys i was reading a weekly magazine and I came accross an interesting article about Beirut, the title says 'After numerous wars, Beirut rises for the third time'. I read it and it basically talks about how Beirut is a major city in the middle east and about all the investments by the gulf countries. It also mentioned the Landmark project, describing it as a sign of Beirut's rebirth. It also mentioned that Beirut is the most liberal city in the ME. And it also talks about the 121 million dollar Grand Hyatt done by an Italian company.

Here are a couple of pics i took:
