Lebanon Is Considered One Of The Most Beautiful Countries In The Middle East With Its Natural Scenery. Here We Are Watching Pictures Of These Pure Beauties.

Today, the image that the general public has of the Middle East is tied to a combination of endless wealth from the oil industry and brutal and breathtaking wars. What is forgotten in the meantime is the natural beauty hidden in the beaches and seas.

Lebanon is one of the most beautiful and different places in the Middle East. Lebanon, located between Syria and the Mediterranean Sea and has Palestine and Cyprus to its south and west, is a relatively small country with an area of ​​about 10,000 square kilometers.

Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, is one of the oldest cities in the world that has hosted humans since 5000 years ago. This city alone can show the rich history of this country. Considering the availability of mountains and the sea and the cultural richness of Lebanon, it would take hours to write a tourist guidebook for this country.

Unfortunately, with the start of the Syrian war in 2010, the situation in this region has wholly changed. Since Lebanon has a common border with Syria, after a while, the destructive waves of the war also reached this country.

While the country’s government had announced the number of visitors to this country at the beginning of 2010, about 2 million people, with the start of the war, this amount dropped by 38%. The neighboring country’s war has had devastating effects on Lebanon’s economy.

Although the war has intimidated tourists eager to visit Lebanon and prevented them from doing so, the beauty of this country cannot be ignored. For this reason, a 29-year-old photographer named Rami Rizek tried to show the beauty of Lebanon with his camera.

In his 2018 album, “Lebanon never like before,” this young photographer depicted the beautiful landscapes of this country with green trees spread throughout the mountains and valleys and the cities tied between the land and the sea along with its stunning architecture. Has drawn. He says this:

I chose Lebanon because it is my land and my country, and I want to portray it as I see it and others understand it. If I want to convey a message through these pictures, it is to love Lebanon because it is different from what you think. And that’s what the pictures show.
