There are medical soaps, parfumed ones, relaxing ones excetra, the best place we found to buy them was a small soaps factory in Tripoli's souk.
Four soaps with a nice pakage may cost abouy8 dollars. Leave a Comment Theme: Local CraftAddress: Souk in Tripoli

Soap-making was established in the Levant long before Europeans gave up the idea that washing was bad for the health. All the great souqs has soap khans where the product was made and traded. The art of traditional soap-making has returned to Tripoli, with some new innovations to cater for the modern taste for alternative therapies - "aroma therapy soap' is a big seller these days. All the soaps have a pure olive oil base with no chemicals in them and the range of perfumes is astonishing,
Khan al-Saboun is both factory and shops but seeif you can go into the back warehouse (through the pillars of soap) where the full range is kept.
What else should you buy in Lebanon but cedar oil soap? It may look like a lump of black tar, but its combination of oil and honey together with the fragance of the cedar oil is wonderfully refreshing and invigorating.

First of all it is well known that Mealtime for the Lebanese is a major part of daily life. So the Lebaense cuisine is sooo delicious. Once you are in Lebanon you should buy lebanese sweets and roasteries. The Phoenician ancestors of today's Lebanese were certainly among the earliest winemakers. Today, Lebanon produces wines and with strong personalities, achieving a rare conditions of dry fruitiness, delicacy and robustness.

In the souqs and shops I saw all kind of local stuff. I liked it to look for a coffee can.
Of different Middle east countries, I have one.
The last week I saw this coffee can used in some restaurants and in our last hotel in Mazraat Khaizarane.
Because we runned out of time the last days and couldn't visit the right shop in time, I bought this can after our last cup of coffee from the hotel. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

In all towns of Lebanon you can find nice shops and picturesque souqs.
I liked the shops in Beirut, Tripopi and Zahle.
I enjoyed my strolls in the souqs and khans of Tripoli, Sidon and Tyr.
Everything you normally need, is for sale in Lebanon.
For home I like it most to buy something with a special rememberance of the country, which I could also use at home.
So I bought this waterbottle, which I saw at nearly every table in Lebanon. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

At this huge store you find different things on different floors. In the basement you find the cameras, computors etc. On the fist floor you have books, magazines, maps and videofilms and most are in English. On the second floor you have the music department with a lot of CDs by Lebanese artists and from other countries. Around the walls there are many head-phones and you can listen to any CD you want. The store is opened untill midnight. Leave a Comment Theme: MusicDirections: On the west side of Place des Martyrs.

Hmmm my Mum and sister Leen in front of one of the shops!
Hee hee hee we bought many things!
I had the impression that we bought all Lebanon and took with us.
But there is a good motivation to go for shopping in all Lebanon in September, especially in a city like Zahle, as it is the season of the discounts.
Great deals for any costumer client! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: ZahleDirections: Down Town

In this old Khan as-Saboun soaps have been sold for centuries. Nowdays most of the soap is made in a factory outside Tripoli.
I was shown around in the Khan and was smelling on the different lovely soaps. At that time I couldn't buy so much as I was travelling around for a few weeks more. But back in Lebanon I went back to Tripoli just to buy a lot of soaps, some for me and some as presents. There are many different scents, shapes and colours. They all have a bas of olive-oil.
They are just wonderful! Leave a Comment Theme: Bath and BeautyAddress: Souk al-Sayaghin, Tripoli (Trablous)Phone: 961-3-874483, 961-6-438369Website: www.khanalsaboun.com Other Contact: info@khanalsaboun.net
