For those of you who thought, "Lebanon? Isn't it dangerous?" In fact, it's a very dangerous country... 🇱🇧✈️🌏

It's not just a "hidden gem in the Middle East". Lebanon is a country where "gap moe" explodes. Many people will think this. "Isn't Lebanon... dangerous because of war?" To be honest, I was the same. But when I actually went there, it was an all-in-one paradise of "Middle East x Europe x ancient ruins x gourmet heaven". Here are 5 reasons why you will exclaim, "Lebanon is surprisingly awesome (the best)!" ① Beirut: "The Paris of the Middle East" is serious about nightlife and cafe culture Lebanon's capital, Beirut, can be summed up as "Paris of the Middle East". ✅ Relax at a stylish cafe by the sea ✅ Nightlife is as hot as a European club ✅ Instagram-worthy street art all over the city "Wow, Lebanon is so urban?!" You'll definitely be surprised. At night, locals and tourists join together to toast at the bar! It's a city of gap moe that breaks the stereotype of "Middle Eastern countries". 👉 Travel advice: Beirut's nightlife is intense, so make sure to plan your next morning in a relaxed manner! ② Ancient ruins of Baalbek: "One of the best Roman ruins" Are there Roman ruins in Lebanon? No, no, it's not just "there". The Baalbek ruins in Lebanon are a group of temples built by the Roman Empire, and boast the world's largest scale. ✅ The overwhelming height of the Temple of Jupiter (22m high columns!) ✅ The Temple of Bacchus, so grand that you wonder if it's CG? ✅ A huge stone that we still don't know how it was built Although it is a World Heritage Site, there aren't that many tourists, so you feel like you have it all to yourself. You'll definitely be groaning, "Huh? Isn't this... more dangerous than Egypt?" 👉 Travel advice: Baalbek is close to the Syrian border, so check the safety information before you go! ③ Lebanese food: "The strongest gourmet kingdom in the Middle East" If you try Lebanese food even once... you will never want to go back to Japan. ✔️ Hummus (chickpea paste) is so rich! ✔️ Shawarma (Lebanese kebab) is so delicious that you will want to eat it every day! ✔️ Tabbouleh (parsley salad) is refreshing and does not make you feel heavy at all! In particular, Lebanese "meze (small dishes)" are delicious in an infinite loop. After you eat one dish, the next dish is waiting... and the next dish... 👉 Travel advice: When you are in a restaurant, tell them "When ordering meze, please order a small amount from the beginning." Otherwise, the dishes will come one after another and you will not be able to finish them all. ④ The great nature of Lebanon: "A country where you can enjoy skiing and the beach in one day" "Wait, you can ski in Lebanon?!" Yes, Lebanon has many mountains with an altitude of 3,000m. In winter, full-scale ski resorts open. ✅ Ski at a fresh powder ski resort in the morning, ✅ swim at the beach or relax at a cafe in the afternoon. Lebanon is the only country in the world where you can have such an otherworldly experience. 👉 Travel advice: We recommend the ski resort "Faraiya". They also have a wide range of rental equipment! ⑤ "Lebanese hospitality" is amazing "What are Lebanese people like?" The answer is "They are the best people in terms of hospitality." ✅ When I asked for directions, they said, "I'll give you a lift!" and gave me a ride. ✅ When I was talking to the person next to me at a cafe, they paid for my coffee. ✅ The hotel owner offered me dinner and cooked for me. The phenomenon of "Lebanese people = so kind it makes me cry" occurred. They seem to think that "foreigners who come to Lebanon = family," and by the time they say "please come again!", my heart is already filled with Lebanon. 👉 Travel advice: When you say thank you, use "Shukran!" (thank you)! Lebanon was "a country with a gap moe that exceeds your imagination." "Isn't Lebanon dangerous?" "Isn't the Middle East all desert?" I want to punch my past self who thought like that. Because in Lebanon...✔️ You can enjoy nightlife and trendy cafes in Beirut✔️ The Baalbek ruins are the best of Roman ruins✔️ Lebanese food is seriously delicious✔️ You can enjoy both skiing and the beach in one day✔️ The Lebanese people are so kind, it makes me cry In conclusion, Lebanon is a country that "destroys the outlook on life of travel lovers."
