It is one of the most understated yet fascinating of countries ....unfortunately , the ravages of years of trouble & torment have produced impressions like those above but the heart & courage of Lebanon's people is bigger than that !

It is a country rich in history , culture , physical beauty & with some of the world's finest cuisine & hospitality ..

I would encourage you to ask a few MORE specific questions...

In spite of all the garbage you read about politics, etc., Lebanon is second to none.

It's a fun country with a lot of decent and kind people who will go miles out of their way to make you feel at home - so much so that I proudly call it my second home.

I've been there in the worst of times and in the best. And always, the Lebanese people make the difference: their food, their creativity, their culture are amongst the richest in the world.

As for safety and security - it really is no hassle. A smile gets you far more than a frown in Lebanon.

Love you, Liban!

People of fine taste of everything,enjoy life to the full,great country.
But Treatment of maids are horrible,they work like slaves and get bad treatment.500 maids have already commited suicide jumping off the balcony.The new white slavery .
I wonder where is human rigths are?
We need to be better human beings ,by treating others well,unfortunately Arabs are failing and it isnt a very good image to the world.
Maids are human being,not animals ,just becoz of her race ,colour we need to be superior and treat them like dogs.

Lebanese thats the bad streak you need to change.

Lebanon (IPA: /ˈlɛbənɒn/) (Arabic: لبنان Lubnān) (French: Liban), officially the Lebanese Republic (الجمهورية اللبنانية) ( La République Libanaise), is a small, largely mountainous country located in the Middle East, located at the eastern edge of the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by Syria to the north and east, and Israel to the south. Due to its sectarian diversity, Lebanon follows a special political system, known as confessionalism, meant to distribute power as evenly as possible among different sects.[1]

The flag of Lebanon features a cedar in green against a white backdrop, bounded by two horizontal red stripes along the top and bottom. This, and the very name of the country itself, are in reference to the verses of the Old Testament (mostly in Psalms) that speak of "Arzei HaL'vanon," or "Cedars of Lebanon."

Until the Lebanese Civil War (1975-1990), the country enjoyed relative calm and prosperity, driven by the tourism, agriculture, and banking sectors of the economy.[2] It is considered the banking capital of the Arab world and was widely known as the "Switzerland of the Middle East"[3][4] due to its financial power. Lebanon also attracted large numbers of tourists,[5] to the point that the capital Beirut became widely referred to as the "Paris of the Middle East."[6]

Immediately following the end of the war, there were extensive efforts to revive the economy and rebuild national infrastructure.[7] By early 2006, a considerable degree of stability had been achieved throughout much of the country, Beirut's reconstruction was almost complete,[8] and an increasing number of foreign tourists were pouring into Lebanon's resorts.[5] Meanwhile, Hezbollah, the Shiite Islamic paramilitary organization, had established a firm foothold in Southern Lebanon and was conducting attacks on Israel without the consent of the Beirut government. The 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah brought mounting civilian and military casualties, extensive damage to civilian infrastructure, and massive population displacement from July 12, 2006 until a ceasefire went into effect on August 14, 2006.

The population there is predominantly Lebanese.

Nerdy Loser, seriously

all I know is that there was a war that was resolved in 1990 I believe. I had to do a report on Lebanon in High School but I dont remember alot of it.

Skeptically cautious

My friend/hairdresser is from Lebanon. What is understand is it is a typical middle eastern male dominant society. However, he talks of a wonderful city, food and people. Yes, like some of the others have mentioned it is a dangerous area, but there is are also people that really live there, have loved ones and have lives just like any of us in the USA.

A country full of hate and agony...too many wars and too many bloodshed.
