If you haven’t made the most of winter in Lebanon, fear not. Here are some activities that will make you fall in love with the snowy season before it ends.

Inaugurated in October 2013, the MiM museum of minerals has brought something truly unique to the country’s cultural scene. This state-of-the-art institution houses the private compendium of minerals accumulated by Lebanese collector and entrepreneur Salim Edde.

Standing at the heart of the Bekaa, Zahle provides visitors with a plethora of exciting landmarks, activities and food experiences.

Located in the Bekaa Valley, Zahle is Lebanon’s third largest city and a hub in the region. The city is surrounded by snow-capped mountains and is renowned for producing a large share of Lebanon’s wine, arak and poetry.

The Lebanese Ministry of Culture has come up with a bright idea to bring a little light relief during these challenging times: a virtual tour of some of Lebanon’s top sites and museums. 

With the support of the Ministry of Tourism, we explore Lebanon’s rich culture and history by visiting some of the most magnificent museums in the country.
