Telling about the Lebanon I visited a month ago

I stayed in Lebanon for 5 days. To be honest, it was not worth it. I visited 4 of the 5 world cultural heritage sites. It feels like UNESCO has not allocated any money and there is no maintenance at all. It is placed there in a mess. Why do you have the nerve to charge tickets? The one with better protection is the Temple of Baalbek, which costs $12. There is still a little way to go. But I can't get into the ruins on the opposite side. There was originally an underground passage from here, but the door at the end of the passage was locked. I don't know what the operation is. Since I bought the ticket, I should be able to see it, the staff said. It's free, but I can't go in. Can I see it the same from outside as from inside? It's better not to buy a ticket. We also went to Tripoli, which is said to be the most splendid city. It’s nice to have a Grand Bazaar. From Tripoli bus station you can take a bus to Biblos Castle. Just tell the driver and he will stop at a suitable place. Just go down and walk inside. The entrance fee is 9 US dollars, but it is really messy here, and there are no roads. Many times, as Lu Xun said, when there are more people walking, it becomes a road to explore. I almost fell down, but of course there were not many tourists. I met a The English-speaking tour guide said he would explain it to me. I said that if you speak Chinese, I may still be able to accept it, but I may not be able to understand the professional terminology in English. In fact, my subtext is, if you want to make Chinese money, why don't you learn Chinese? Saida and Tyre are in the south of Beirut. You can take a minibus at the bus station and it only costs 250,000 local currency in total. Saida has beautiful blue water and an earthy yellow castle. It is very beautiful and the city is also beautiful. Clean and tidy with smooth roads. Unlike the road to Baalbek, there are big potholes and small potholes, and there are patches here and there. Seeing this bad road, I thought to myself, why don't you let the Chinese help you repair it? After arriving at Tire Bus Station, walk down and you will reach Tire Castle in less than 5 minutes. This castle was built right on the seaside. Unfortunately, there are only a few ruins left, not even anything of scale. I didn't find the door to get in. Then I found a place selling tombstones, and the man waved me in to take pictures. Sure enough, this angle is pretty good. I took photos for a while and saw that he was holding money in his hand. I guess he wanted a tip. I gave him a few dollars and he thanked me happily. When I came back, I found the entrance to the scenic spot. Okay, okay, it saved me 9 dollars. It's really not worth paying for it. I also took a photo at the entrance of Angel Ancient City. The inside is just like that. To be honest, the gold content of these four world cultural heritages is too low. Only Baalbek is decent. The rest are really not worth it. . So two days are enough in Lebanon, one day for Baalbek and the Bekaa Valley, and another day for walking around the city and seeing the Pigeon Rock Mosque. If you delay for one more day, it will be another boring day. Who said it was the Paris of the Middle East? So how low is the gold content of the Middle East? If Paris looks like this, can it still be Paris? I would also like to say that although taxi drivers in Lebanon are quite hateful, asking tourists for random prices, and will overturn the agreed price at will when you arrive at the destination, forcing you to pay a high price, long-distance transportation is okay. Although there are a little more stops and the car is a little worn, the price is not arbitrary. You can use public transportation to Baalbek, Tripoli, Byblos, Saida, and Tire, and the price is not expensive. There is no need to charter a car at all. I really don’t understand how expensive it is to charter a car in Lebanon. The price given by my B&B owner (a Chinese) is $120 for Baalbek (120 kilometers round trip to Beirut), $150 for Tripoli (150 kilometers round trip), and $150 for Byblos (60 kilometers round trip). ) 120 knives, and these two places cannot be visited on the same day. I used facts to prove that the two places are in the same direction, even if public transportation is used, not only can I finish the trip in one day, but I can also return to my residence before four o'clock. Hey, it feels like That road is made of gold. But it’s expensive for a reason. Those scenic spots must be worth the charter fare. It’s really not cost-effective to visit places that aren’t worth it.
