Practical information : Sightseeing Beirut

Timetable

While the vast majority of places of worship are open to everyone at any time of day, most museums close on Mondays and holidays. Be careful, on religious holidays and pilgrimage days, crowds can be high: agoraphobe should abstain.

To be booked

Even for the National Museum, it is not necessary to reserve a time slot for a visit. However, to benefit from a French-speaking guide, it is better to book in advance

Budget & Tips

In general, visits to Lebanon's historical, religious and cultural sites remain free of charge, with a few exceptions, such as certain museums.

Main events

Religious holidays such as Eid el-Kebir for Muslims or Easter for Christians are occasions for great celebrations. Secular events are also popular, such as the international film festival or the French book fair, which usually take place in October.

Guided tours

A double-decker bus company recently opened a guided tour of Beirut. As for travel agencies, they offer thematic tours, such as discovering Beirut through Lebanese gastronomy or a tour of the country's vineyards.

Smokers

Although the Lebanese are great tobacco lovers, smoking is prohibited in historical, cultural and religious sites.

Tourist traps

Apart from a few travel agencies that specialize more in scams than in tourism, tourists do not risk much in Beirut.

What's very local

For any visit to a place of worship, one must be decently dressed: shoulders must be covered and shorts are to be avoided. Some mosques provide veils and abayas to be able to visit them.
