Green light on the former greenline of the civil war in Beirut. Snipers... (Beit Beirut)

Green light on the former greenline of the civil war in #Beirut. Snipers used this building, probably because of its genius architecture that has great views from every room. Today, it's turned into a war remembrance museum called #beitbeirut and has now a photography exhibition. This heritage building was due to be destroyed by greed, but it was saved, partly due to the stubborn passion of our dear @monaelhallak . . This is pretty probably because it was built by people who are not here anymore. Not sure the contemporary additions to #Beirut have added to its esthetics, but am sure a lot of them have ruined much of its charm... . . #sodeco #lebanon #architecture #archaeology #travel #roman #greek #church #mosque #tourism #photography #archaeologicalsite #art #design #heritage #liban #beyrouth #voyage #archeologie #livelovelebanon #livelovebeirut #newyear #2018 #sunday #weekend #sodecoboumboum #forthosewhorememberthis
