Lebanon

Views and buildings from across Lebanon...

 Zaitunay Bay, Beirut. A new development for Lebanon on the seafront, however, i find myself particularly interested by it's view of the Four Seasons Hotel and over apartment blocks that light up the Bay from above. All four of these buildings are all tall glossy glass structures, with beautiful seafront views.

Views from my house overlooking the city, from hundreds of metres above in the hills of Ein Saade

 Views looking on to the North of Lebanon

 The beautiful Byblos, where allegedly parts of the Bible were written. This image is of the old port, with the lovely old stone buildings, and the tour boats.

This image is of Downtown Beirut, which was redeveloped by Solidaire, the area had been terribly bombed and ruined in the civil war. In some of the buildings you can still see some of the bullet marks, the buildings had had their facades refurbed but deep bullet marks are still there.
