18 km north of
Beirut
is Jounieh; the playground of the Middle East as described
by "The Washington Post" few years ago. Jounieh offers some
of the best of Lebanon in the following categories: Hotels,
Motels, Restaurants, Theaters, Cinemas, Nightclubs,
Super-Shows, Cabarets, Chalets, Sports Clubs, Beach Clubs,
Amusement Centers, Art Galleries, etc.
Beautifully located on the majestic Bay of Jounieh on the
sea coast of the Mediterranean. This is the city of ancient
civilizations and a modern business center for the today
visionary entrepreneur. Come and experience the excitement,
you will be delighted to visit Jounieh the hub of cultures
and civilization.
During the summer season, a night time ascent and descent
gives you a remarkable sparkling view of the Jounieh and bay
area. During the spring and early summer months, you can
leave a balmy sunny day along the cost and arrive at a fog
enshrouded terminal building on the top. The mountain
terminal features a gift shop and restaurant. Before
entering Jounieh on the road from Beirut, you cross the Dog
River or Lycos of the ancients. Here on the rock face are a
series of carved reliefs recording the passage of numerous
ancient armies and rulers, among them Ramses II of Egypt,
Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon and the Roman emperor Caracalla.
