Lebanon – Bekaa: Baalbek
Witnessing the birth of civilizations, Baalbek is home to the most splendid structures in the world. The city is located in a valley to the east of Lebanon and has been populated by numerous civilizations, from Rome and Byzantium to the Ottoman Empire. Baalbek is regarded as a very important settlement and has become a trade center since it has been one of the key trade locations. Despite the fact that it was not given the value it deserved for years because of terrorism, Baalbek, which has started to shine again by becoming a tourist destination after the peace environment was provided, has a history of five thousand years. Baalbek is also home to dozens of small and large, must-visit temples.
