With sun drenched sandy beaches, a myriad of restaurants, bars and clubs, world class museums and great shops, there\u2019s so much to explore in the city.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">To help you start planning your vacation in Lebanon, we\u2019ve put together a guide of things to do in Beirut in 24 hours.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 18.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<h3 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 18.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">Morning<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-8857\" alt=\"Pigeon Rocks,  Lebanon, Beirut\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bluebayresorts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/beirut_playa.jpg\" width=\"686\" height=\"315\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">Start the day with a walk along the Corniche promenade, where you can catch glimpses of Mount Lebanon, as well as enjoy views of the Mediterranean (and even take a dip if you wish!). For breakfast, pick up a cup of black coffee and a slice of baklava from one of the many street vendors that line the promenade.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">Next, head inland to Beirut\u2019s Mazra District to the city\u2019s national museum. With a history spanning back more than 5,000 years, the National Museum on Rue de Damas should be at the very top of your list of things to do in Beirut.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 18.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<h3 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 18.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">Afternoon<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-8856\" alt=\"Downtown Beirut, Lebanon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bluebayresorts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/beirut_torrereloj.jpg\" width=\"686\" height=\"315\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">It\u2019s clear to see why Beirut is often called the Paris of the East as you wander through the broad boulevards of Downtown Beirut. Known for its cafes and restaurants, the cosmopolitan heart of the city is a great place to stop for lunch. After fueling up, it\u2019s time to shop \u2018til you drop in the area\u2019s myriad of boutiques, many of which boast international designer labels.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">If you\u2019re looking for beautifully crafted local goods for the home or as gifts, head to Saifi Village at the southeastern periphery of Beirut\u2019s center. Known as the city\u2019s creative neighborhood, the area was largely destroyed during the war in Lebanon, and is now a mix of modern buildings and traditional Levantine architecture.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 18.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<h3 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 18.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">Evening<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">In the evening, head to the Gemmayzeh strip, just 15 minutes from the Le Royal Beirut Hotel by BlueBay. What was once a sleepy district has been transformed into a nightlife hotspot in a city now known as one of the party capitals of the world! Enjoy delicious traditional mezze washed down with Lebanese wine at one of the area\u2019s smart restaurants before heading on to one of the buzzing clubs which often play host to international DJs. Feel like you\u2019re flagging? Grab a caffeine pick-me-up at one of Gemmayzeh\u2019s 100 or so coffee shops open late into the night.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"ES\" style=\"font-size: 14.0pt;font-family: 'Times New Roman'\">So that\u2019s our list of things to do in Beirut in 24 hours.
