 Old Airport Terminal by Ziad84
Since Lebanon enjoys a summery climate from May to October, pack some light cotton and linen cloths. Don’t forget your bathing suit! If you’re planning on visiting Lebanon during the winter (November to April), it would be advisable to wear warmer cloths (woollens, polo-necks…). We also recommend you bring a coat and scarf.
Don’t forget to pack a couple of smart evening outfits, for dining out in Lebanon can be a very stylish affair!
Everything is found in Lebanon's numerous pharmacies and Coops so nothing will not be found there.
Again there are development labs everywhere you look so you could bring your digital camera or normal film camera
There are no camping grounds found or run in Beirut but if you go up north or down south a range of outdoor activities will be found.
The local currency is the Lebanese Pound or Lira (LL or LBP). You can pay in dollars as well.
Notes are in denominations of LL1,000 – LL5,000 – LL10,000 – LL20,000 – LL50,000 – LL100,000.
Coins are in pieces of LL50 – LL100 – LL250 – LL500.
The US Dollar (to date): 1$ = ~ LL1,500 Leave a Comment Other Contact: www.whatsuplebanon.com

Below are a few books I recommend reading prior to a trip to Beirut:
Pity The Nation, by Robert Fisk
Beyrouth - La Brűlure des Ręves (Éditions Autrements, Collection Monde)
Histoire du Liban Contemporain 1860-1943 - Denise Ammoun (Fayard)
Beirut's Memory, by Ayman Trawi (Photo Collection)

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 Leave a Comment

It might be very hot in Beirut but if you are travelling up the Lebanese mountain don’t forget to take an extra sweater or/and a worm jacket as it can be very cold up there. Leave a Comment
