Guess this city

Maybe this would help

Thank you. To tell you the truth, I'm a big fan of Beirut and Lebanon. I wanted to travel it last year. My father has been in Lebanon when he was a soldier and he really wanted to turn back. But things got very chaotic with the death of the minister of foreign affairs so we decided we didn't go to Lebanon. How is the situation in Lebanon at the moment? Is it save for travelling?

Right now the situation is calm, It is very hard to get tickets for the summer because they are all sold out! Well from what i've heard from my family in Ottawa. I hope Beirut will get it's fame back, and you guys should really visit it, you won't regret it that I tell you. There's a major construction boom since last year, and many highrises are being constructed . And last week a 1.5 billion dollar project was announced and a bigger one is coming soon. Here you should visit this

See you

Yeah that's what I mean. It's not sold out, it is just very hard to get one and expensive for this season. Since you can go ski and half an hour later go to the beach, many reserves tickets this time around. Beirut should expand it's airport to be able to accomodate more airplanes, it is something they should consider.

Yeah Lebanon is special for that reason. I was always amazed how it is very mountainious and how snowy it is. It's the only country in the middle-east that does not have a desert! Pretty special. Ahh Beirut can get up to 44 C with humidity, but normal tempeture in Beirut is around 30-40 C. Today it was around 32 C. If you go up in the mountains, let's say Harissa, Brumana or Bhamdoun, it is around 20-25 C.
