The capital allows the tourists to admire histori-
cal treasures and enjoy the hospitality of the locals.
Amongst them several cultural sights stand out:
The National Museum of Beirut, with pieces that are
part of a seven time millenaire history.
It is comparable to nothing to enjoy in Corniche,
a boulevard near the Raouche, or Roca de las Palo-
mas, ideal for a stroll. In the area several restaurants
of Lebanese and international cuisine can be found,
as well as cafes on the edge of the Mediterranean
Sea that offer diversion to its visitors, including
narguiles, commonly called arguiles or hookas. In
Roca de las Palomas the oldest evidence of human
existence in Beirut can be found. These flints and
other basic objects are at display the National Mu-
seum of Beirut. It is said that the rock was climbed
by those who had a great disappointed in love and
went there to mourn their sorrows and even, there
were those who ended their lives by jumping.
La capital permite al turista admirar los tesoros
históricos y disfrutar de su calidez humana. De en-
tre los sitios culturales resalta el Museo Nacional de
Beirut, con piezas que son parte de una historia siete
veces milenaria.
Inigualable disfrutar en la Corniche, un bou-
levard cercano al Raouche, o Roca de las Palomas,
ideal para el esparcimiento. En el área hay restau-
rantes con cocina libanesa e internacional, además
de cafés al borde del mar Mediterráneo, que ofrecen
diversión a los visitantes, incluyendo los nargui-
les, llamados comúnmente arguiles o hookas. En la
Roca de las Palomas se encontró la evidencia más
antigua de la existencia humana en Beirut. Se trata
de pedernales y otros objetos básicos que exhibe
el Museo Nacional de Beirut. Se dice que a la roca
subían los decepcionados en el amor para llorar allí
sus penas, e incluso hubo quienes terminaron su
vida arrojándose al vacío.
