Tourist Attractions in Beirut

Being a primitive place, Beirut reveals enormous historical and archaeological wonders. Among all of them, we can see major landmarks that steal your time. However, many of the highlights are scattered in different districts. Pigeon Rocks located in Raouché District are a natural rock formation with arch shape, gigantic in size, and beautiful in view. Visitors and locals will enjoy watching sunset from here. Local boats facilitate you to ride through the arch, which is a great experience. In the Downtown district, visitors can find the ‘Place de l'Etoile’, where the Beirut’s oldest church is located and it is linked with a religious Museum. The Martyr's Statue is another corner deserves a snap, located in Downtown Martyr's Square.
