Things which one can do during their Batroun stay
The city of Batroun is famous for its Phoenician wall, the old square and the local drink, the
best lemonade in the world. The city has a triangular shape and rests on a plain crossed by the
Nahr el-Jawz River and the Mediterranean borders it on the west while the slopes of Mount
Lebanon do it to the south and to the east and the Ras ech-Chaga plateau in the North. To the
northeast of the city is Fort Mussaylha, an imposing fortress that was built by Fakhr Ed-Dine
II and stands on a rocky promontory at a good height.

The best things to do in Beirut
One of the best things about guest house for rent in Batroun is that, being so small, you
can easily get apartment during your travel. I recommend that you stay in Beirut as your base
and take day trips from there. Although the country is small, you will not get bored. There are
so many things to do! Here are some ideas for your itinerary in Lebanon:
Jeitta Grotto
About 20 km north of Beirut, Jeita Grotto is a system of two connected caves (upper and
lower Grotto) and a proof that our Mother Nature is much more creative than man. It's hard to
believe that all the rock formations in these caves are the result of a natural process!
Unfortunately, taking pictures inside the caves is prohibited. Look for them in Google or,
even better, go see these caves with your own eyes as soon as possible.
The ticket (18,150 LL or 12 $) includes a cable car trip to access the upper cave, a walking
tour inside the cave, a train trip to access the lower cave and a boat trip to explore the
underground cave.
Byblos
Another essential place on a trip to Lebanon is the historic city of Byblos. Byblos is a
picturesque seaside resort with a lovely beach ideal for a day trip from Beirut. World
Heritage Site by UNESCO, Byblos is considered one of the oldest cities in the world since it
was founded in the year 7000 BC and has been continuously inhabited since the year 5000
BC until today.
Wineries in Batroun is not cheap but do not leave without trying the Lebanese wines and the
local beers.
