Hi @TheEagleEye ,

Thank you for sharing you photo. Have you visited the Temple of Bacchus recently? What else could a visitor admire in Lebanon based in your experience? How was the weather like?

Hi @VasT , my wife and I visited Lebanon in October 2017. It is so difficult to pick best experiences as everything was amazing. The scenery, the people, the food, and accommodation. We even went right up to the Lebanon/Syria border and it was safe. We drove past refugee camps and stopped off at one to.

We want to go again someday.

That’s great @TheEagleEye ,

It looks like you have traveled a lot. Since you mentioned the people, what do you value most about them? What is the customary time for visiting friends?

@VasT , I like the friendship and warmth from the people of Lebanon and surrounding countries. Western society has lost genuine friendship and caring. In most cases during travel, I find that those with less have most to give, even if that only means a smile.
