You don't rebuild an entire country after 25 years of civil war in a week. In particular, you don't do it when the next twenty years are frought with civil strife, political crises, unresolved refugee issues and foreign invasions and occupations. This is all to say that no visitor Beirut or Lebanon as a whole should expect not to find scars of the past or blatant examples of the destruction brought about by the conflict that engulfed this small nation for two and a half decades. A huge amount of money has been invest in rebuilding the country, large portions of which have come from wealthy Lebanese investors who made their money in the West or the Gulf. Investors also play political games, so money has come from the US, France, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Iran at various times as a means of buoying specific factions. The result is a motley spectacle of development and reconstruction, from the decrepit refugee camps of Sabra and Shtila to the gleaming office towers and shopping malls around Sahet an-Nejmeh. In Beirut, sometimes the best models for your photographs are the buildings that surround you and the voids that remain after the war.
Everything that you might require during your stay can be bought in Lebanon at prices comparable to those in Europe or America. In summer, light cotton clothing, a hat and sunglasses are essential. Visitors during winter months will require warm clothing
Do not pay more than $10 for this
You'll find plenty of 'psychics' offering to read your palms, turkish coffee cup, sea shells, forhead, nostril hairs (just kidding there)
I had a bedouin read my 'life' by asking me to hold some sea shells and throw them, I don't remember what she said but I do remember one thing being surprisingly correct..then again who doesn't have a young brother who's outgoing and charismatic (Today he isn't though! He ate my chocolate spread and I'm waiting for him to sleep to shave his eyebrows)
...Back to the psychics- Have someone read your future/past/whatever you like, and take a pic! most of the time they dress dramatically.
The lady who read for me was sitting in a resteraunt in Bhamddoun called 'Al Janna' - her name was Sabah
