Despite it's compact size, Lebanon is a country with a long and rich history and one packed full of things to see and do. As well as Beirut - one of the Middle East's most cosmopolitan and liberal cities, there are also intact Roman temples, ancient ruins, beautiful caverns, Cypress tree valleys and much more. Not to mention the delicious cuisine and Lebanese wine.
