Beirut: the charming capital of the Middle East.

Beirut, the beating heart of Lebanon, nestles on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. It is like a splendid puzzle intertwined with history and the present, exuding unique charm.

It is a "time treasure box" of history. The Phoenician ruins in the city are like messengers traveling through thousands of years. The ruins stand quietly, telling the glory of the ancient maritime civilization. Ottoman-style buildings are dotted here and there, with carved arches and domed corridors, engraved with the past of the empire. Imprint, every brick and stone is soaked in the precipitation of time.

As a cultural "kaleidoscope", Beirut is inclusive of diversity. In the National Museum, you can appreciate cultural relics and treasures spanning time and space from ancient times to the present; in the streets, traditional Arabic music and modern pop music play harmonious melodies. In the theater, drama performances combine local stories with international perspectives, blooming the brilliance of art.

Food is one of Beirut's best. The street restaurants are full of fireworks. The "Tabouleh" is refreshing and greasy, and the "Grilled Lamb" is charred and juicy. Paired with fluffy pita bread, your taste buds will start a Middle Eastern feast. The gentle breeze of the Mediterranean Sea shuttles between ancient ruins and modern buildings. Beirut is reborn after vicissitudes of life, showing its vitality.
