He was assassinated on this spot in 2005 in a car bomb attack, which also took the lives of 22 civilians. The Memorial is located near St George's Hotel and features a statue of Rafik Hariri, a sculptural piece, and a torch. Following the tragedy, the street has been renamed after the late Prime Minister. Address: Rafic Al Hariri Memorial, Beirut, Lebanon Image Courtesy of Flickr and Alexei2009 B) Corniche (must see) The Corniche Beirut is a seaside promenade. Lined with palm trees, this waterfront boulevard offers visitors a magnificent view of the Mediterranean and the summits of Mount Lebanon to the east. The Corniche is a popular destination for walkers, joggers and bikers. Push cart vendors offer an array of local snacks and drinks. Many a trunks of the Corniche palm trees are pockmarked with bullet holes left by the Lebanese Civil War. In the summer of 2007, the distinctive blue railings were replaced, due to severe rusting, with a sleeker-looking aluminum railing modified so as to make it more difficult for thrill-seekers to dive off. The Corniche encircles the Beirut promontory from the Saint George Bay on the northern coast of the city, turning west into Place Rafik Hariri, then into Avenue de Paris, Raouché, and finally into Avenue General de Gaulle.

It is located on the campus of the American University of Beirut and was opened in 1873, pioneered by Dr. Cornelius Van Dyck. The name "Lee" refers to Henry Lee, a wealthy British merchant from Manchester, who made a significant donation to help finance the project. The Observatory had a twin role, sky gazing and meteorological forecasting for the Middle East. Address: American University of Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon Image Courtesy of Flickr and Firas Wehbe.

The museum remained closed during World War II and re-opened in It expanded in the 1950s and doubled its floor space with a refurbishment under curator D.C. Baramki which opened to the public in The museum remained open during the years of crisis between 1975 and 1990 and underwent another complete renovation in 2006 under the present director.
