Excellent rejuvenation of the area. It is high-end, so take this into consideration in terms of the restaurants, shopping, etc in the Beirut Souks area, Downtown, in general... Very well maintained. Lots of churches, the beatiful blue-domed mosque, archeological sites...

This place is great, you have all the Shops, Restaurants and a very nice walking area at night. Would strongly recommend going there if you are in Bierut, consider it a must see

The fruits of Rafiq Al Harriri, this reworked part of Beirut is a pleasant place to walk. Retail outlets are little limited in the sense that they only cater to premium customers, but overall, the walk is still pleasant. It can get boring very quickly though - it isn't a large area by any standard.

Newly build city center is beautiful and you may not believe that you are walking in a MiddleEastern city, all store are luxury branded and cafes and restaurants are easily comparable with ones in Monaco or Nice. You will love the place for sure...

This areas, although with a great architecture art as it is was designed based on the original architecture of the building prior to the Civil War, lacks the soul and the authenticity of Beirut and Lebanese. If you want to be surrounded by Lebanese just go to the Cornish, Hamra and Achrafieh. There it is with a Soul.
