Neighborhoods

Where to go for strolls, walks, and day trips.
This area is an upscale retail and entertainment strip. Think Beverly Hills, on a much smaller scale. The ABC mall is one of the most beautiful architectural indoor/outdoor spaces in Beirut and is a very convenient hang out spot.

The most charming of them all. Gemmayzeh and Mar Mkhael is the heart of the young and modern locals. It’s the nightly hang out place. And a buzzing creative neighborhood in the day time.

A scenic neighborhood in the mountains. You can easily spend a relaxing day visiting the gorgeous Mediterranean L’espace Spa at Al Bustan Hotel (try their traditional Hammam or their signature massage) lunching at the classic Lebanese restaurant, Mounir. And visiting the touristic sights nearby.
