Beirut and Raouché area

Beirut is a city of contrast. Old and new. Ruins and modern construction. Arabic and european. Conservative and ... let's just say less conservative ... But when it comes to chaos, there is no constrast ! It is chaos "à l'os" !!
Strolling at Raoucheh Little princess Gorgeous architecture Would you like some coffee ?
Mosque in the background Mix of religions. There is a total of 18 religious faiths in Lebanon, now living harmoniously Mix of religions Brilliant architecture
... and reflections Church (St George?) Mosque and church in the background Modern yet typical windows
The famous clock survived the war ... ... and is still standing proudly Wearing the veil with style Ladies strolling
Hey, taxi ! Beautiful architecture Sidewalk café Arches
Poster and mosque Break ! Ruins by new construction Ruins and new construction in the gackground
Near the Martyrs' square Yellow stones Socializing by the traffic and barbed wires Old and older
The famous Raouché rock Wave coming through Raouché from the plane Beirut from the plane
Fishermen Roof falling apart Typical house After an explosion
Box-like windows Typical morning coffee, with the 'rakwé' People literally jump in front of the car to cross the highway! War scars
