Tripoli

Lebanon - Northern Lebanon

On the sparkling coast of the Mediterranean, Tripoli was a cornerstone for civilisations. Phoenicians, Romans and Byzantines are only the beginning of the cityā€™s rich cultural history and famous for its crusader fortress, the Citadel of Raymond de Saint-Gilles.

It is the capital of the North and Lebanon’s second-largest city. Thanks to its historical wealth, relaxed lifestyle and thriving business climate, modern and medieval blend effortlessly into a lively and hospitable metropolis.

With over forty-five historical sites in the city dating back to the 14th century, the souk and khans are crowded with people of various trades. Youā€™ll see tailors, jewellers, perfumers, tanners and soap-makers working in a charming, lively atmosphere, changed very little over the last 500 years.
