The Temple of Jupiter, Roman ruins in the town of Baalbek, Lebanon named City of the Sun following the conquest of Alexander the Great. The Romans made efforts to integrate the people of the Middle East by appearing to favour their gods, while in fact building the most awe-inspiring structures possible to impress the worshippers with the strength of Roman political rule and civilisation. #Baalbek #lebanon #templeofjupiter #temple #jupiter #roman #ruins #civilisation #mjvphotos #building #photojournalism #livelovelife
