Beirut is the capital and largest city of Lebanon. As of 2025, Greater Beirut has a population of 2.4 million, just under half of Lebanon's population, which makes it the twelfth-largest city in the Levant region and the sixteenth-largest in the Arab world. The city is situated on a peninsula at the midpoint of Lebanon's Mediterranean coast. Beirut has been inhabited for more than 5,000 years, making it one of the oldest cities in the world.

Nestled on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, Beirut is a city that has seen its fair share of ups and downs over the years. From being the “Paris of the Middle East” in the 1960s to being torn apart by civil war in the 1980s, Beirut has gone through a tumultuous past. However, with the help of its resilient citizens, Beirut has emerged as a thriving city that is a must-visit destination for any traveler.

One of the first things that you will notice about Beirut is its unique blend of cultures. The city is home to a diverse mix of people, including Lebanese, Armenians, Syrians, and Palestinians, among others. This cultural diversity is reflected in the city’s architecture, food, and fashion.
