The breathtaking Temple of Bacchus at Baalbek, Lebanon - one of the (if not the) best preserved Roman temples on the planet 😮 — #baalbek #lebanon #liban #bacchus #wine #temple #romantemple #roman #romanruins #spectacularsights #breathtaking #incredibleplaces #wanderlust #wanderlusttravel #thewanderingtourist #wanderingphotographers #wandertheworld #travelpics #middleeast #middleeasttravel #traveltheglobe #globetrotter #globetrotting #backpacking #archeology #goingplaces #iwanttotravel #iwanttotraveltheworld #bucketlist #bucketlisttravel

The most impressive Roman ruins are not where you think they are. This picture was not taken in Italy, nor somewhere else in Europe, but in the heart of the Middle East. These are the incredible remains of the Roman temples of Baalbek, Lebanon. I was stunned seeing the ruins, not just because of their sheer size (they include the largest Jupiter temple ever built), but also because there was hardly a soul in sight... But with war-ridden Syria around the corner and Hezbollah ruling this part of Lebanon, it’s maybe no surprise that tourists are staying away. Which is a shame, though, because visiting the temples of Baalbek is actually perfectly safe these days!

In the heart Sidon we stumbled upon this stunner of a palace! Hidden in the maze of little streets and alleys that make up Sidon’s souq (which is worth a visit in its own right), behind a door leading to a staircase, is the gorgeous Palace Debbané, an 18th century Ottoman city palace. Its beauty and serenity - with the hustle and bustle of city life just down below - blew me away! — #palace #citypalace #sidon #saida #lebanon #hiddenbeauty #hiddentreasures #hiddentreasure #offthebeatenpath #offthebeatentrack #travelingram #traveldiscoveries #travelphotography #travelblogger #middleeast #middleeasternstyle #ottoman #beautifulplaces #bestdestinations #travelandleisure #cntravel #travelmore #keepexploring #lebanon #lebanontravel #visitlebanon
