Baalbek

Visited in May 2023.

The WHO is located in the territory controlled by Hezbollah, so you need to be careful when planning your trip, there may be bombings in the surrounding area.I got here by bus from Beirut, not without adventures, I had to pay extra and change to another bus, but you can do without a taxi.Mysterious in its monumentality, the temple complex was built on the easternmost edge of the Roman Empire. A grandiose sacred complex was built here in the first century AD, which is considered to be one of the largest in the ancient world. The temple-sanctuary of Jupiter on a massive stylobate, the temple of Bacchus, the temple of Venus, there was also a temple of Mercury on the neighboring hill, but it did not survive

Rachid Karami International Fair-Tripoli

Visited in May 2023.In this case, I was lucky, because the architectural project of Oskar Niemeyer received the status of world heritage in January 2023, at an extraordinary session, in a number of objects under threat, together with Odessa. The 1950s were a time of rapid development of Lebanon, which gained independence during WWII.

Tyre

Visited in May 2023.It should be understood right away that the city is located in the south of Lebanon, a region controlled by Hezbollah, so this factor should be taken into account when planning a visit. I visited this city when the situation was more or less calm.Although these political factors are not particularly felt in the historical center, there is a specially designated area with recognizable symbols, but in the tourist zone tourists walk in shorts and short dresses, alcohol is sold, and no tension was felt.Also, I covered some gestalt, because in the last couple of years I visited several Mediterranean colonies founded by Phoenician Tyre, the most famous of them are Carthage and Cadiz

San Pedro de la Roca Castle

Visited in February 2023.

Like Havana, Santiago de Cuba is built on a bay that goes deep enough into the land. Like in Havana, the fairly narrow entrance to this bay was easily protected by fortification systems. The Spaniards spared them no money. The island was a transshipment base for armadas of galleons loaded with precious metals from the New World, and pirates in the 17th and 18th centuries began to attack cities with the aim of extracting booty from them.The fortress on the rocky promontory of El Morro, 10 km from Santiago (easy taxi ride), began to be built in 1638 under the leadership of the Milanese engineer Giovanni Battista Antonelli, and it was done intermittently until the end of the century (and then expanded further)
