The green mountain (Aljabal Alakhder) , The Sahara and the digged houses in Aljabal Algarbi are the most things I love to go to and see more and more. This picture is from the near past. Somewhere in Libya you might find such old people who enjoy playing cards , use their bikes as means of transportation and love to live in such houses.Traditional Libyan clothes are still weared specially by old people.
Libya, which is as big as Germany, France, Scandinavia andHolland put together, is the gateway to the Arab Maghreb,andthe link between Europe and Africa .It also connects the desert to the sea ( the Gulf of sirt_'Africa's window on the world'), and is a country which, more than any other, has succeeded in remaining a virgin land.Capable of offering tourists with a passion for archaeology and love of adventure first_class hotel accommodation,impressive historical remains,unique landscapes, nature in all its glory, and striking contrasts. The Arabs say:-(( If amazement is the first step to knowledge, our desertis amazement itself.))
If you are coming to Libya by air ; you must come to Tripoli at first . When you arrive ; you can find very cheep taxi to the center of city [ ~ 30 km ]Best hotels are HOTEL MAHARI and HOTEL KEBIR . You can find good services and clean rooms . And it is not expensive . Even you can find more cheaper hotels in city. My best memory about Libya :MY MARRIAGE PARTY... I married with a LIBYAN LADY at 1992 and I'm very happy with her . We made traditional party for marriage ; it was really interesting . Just one week ...Everyday different affair . Really you must come and see a Libyan marriage party.
Visit Tripoli (North-West Libya) Tripoli is the capital of Libya and the place worth to see. Most of the tours start here. You find in Tripoli the lovely colonial (Lybia was the Italian colony) buildings, the small and narrow streets of old Tripoli, mosques. I enjoyed just to walk around Tripoli. This city has some unique charm. More pictures in the travelogue 'Tripoli'
Visit Tripoli the old city.The old city of Tripoli on noth Africa coast displays many features tyical of mediterranean towns.Its urban fabric-as well as its important historical monument,express many of charactreristics of a city culture,which was developed in the mediterranean basin .Like many other towns of the same local ,the history of Tripoli is complex,extending bsck into the classic time with fpr exaple,the celebrated triumphal arch erected for the honor of the joint emperor Marcus Aurilius & Lusius Virus,in (163A.D).When walking through its narrow streets it is not unusual to come across roman columns,which have been reused as building material. many different dynasties had ruled over the city after the arab arrival and islamic religion in the 7th centuries.These included periods of european domination-the spanish & the knights of St.John the baptist in the 16th century.

Hmmmmm? With a friend (not alone- at least not the first time) just go for a walk around the citycentre and sea front starting around 18.00 / 19.00 hrs and go with the flow on what you find. Its truly a friendly place. Being invited to a complete stranger's house to join him and his family for a meal (Would we do the same? )If you're in Benghazi, go to one of the principal hotels (Ouzo, Tibesti) and hire a taxi for the day to the Green Mountains to the east. You'll be very pleasantly surprised by the scenery. Make a point of talking to people that you meet, they and you will enjoy it.
visit the Lebanese restraurant behind the Al-Kebir Hotel in Tripoli for reasonably-priced good food. Dont be afraid to just walk in somewhere and ask about the menu, as chatting is a normal part of life there and it establishes a good start to the meal. And dont worry about leaving if you feel its not the meal you're looking for. taking a desert taxi from Marsa el-Brega to Tripoli overnight. Low price and not exactly recommended, but some experience!
Go to the ancient granary at Gaze al Haj. It is 12th century and looks like a fortress from the outside and a wonderful set of huge pigeonholes within. The granary is still in use with the local people and you may see them crawling through the gaps to collect the grain. This is really difficult to choose there are so many fantastic experiences. There is the incredible Villa Silin mosaics, the experience of the desert but, choosing one thing it would probably be the Temple of Isis on the headland next to the Mediterranean at Sabratha. The walk from the amphitheatre to it is much better than the walk from the theatre. Romantic and most people don't bother to do the walk!
Camels on the road from Tripoli to Ghadames. It is said to be dangerous driving at night because the camels lay on the asfalted road as this is warmer. Also watch out for sand dunes blown on the road!
Visit Leptis Magna, a huge Roman city with many streets and building still standing. Don't forget to go to the bath house on the beach which is a long walk but definitely worth it. When we went it was closed, but the inside had beautiful frescos which could be seen through a small window. The friends we got to know in Lybia, and the splendid evenings we had dining at their appartement in Tripoli.
