Magnificent underground caverns can be explored by boat and on foot.
Reviewed By Sandyman1 - London, United Kingdom
I would highly recommend visiting this place, it's like nothing you will have seen before. I loved going on the boat through the cave. It's something that just would not be allowed in the UK due to health and safety. It felt like a little adventure.

It is a big monastery area with its private farm and playground for kids. We enjoy few hours with the family where the kids can have a tour to see the animals, eat fresh food, paint and play. It also has a store of freshly prepared Lebanese food that you can take home, include wine, honey ...

The Mall is well set out, clean and has most of what you want. I particularly liked the roof top food court. Great weather to relax and have some lunch or coffee.

I visited Our Lady of Harissa with my family and enjoyed some quiet time. Church services were on so we could hear the singing. It isnt a place to be loud or allow kids to horse around. People visiting should be respectful as we saw the attendants approach a couple of people who were too loud.
5. Mim Museum - Mineral Museum
Overall Ratings
5 based on 174 reviews
mim is a private mineral museum in Beirut, Lebanon. It exhibits more than 1800 minerals, representing some 400 different species from over 70 countries. Created by nature itself, those works of art with their breathtaking aesthetics were formed in earth’s crust millions of years ago. Mr. Salim Edde has built up this collection starting 1997. You can discover pieces originating from a number of renowned collections --both old and more recent-- as well as from the major mining discoveries of our era. The mim collection is now considered to be one of the world's paramount private collections for the variety and quality of its minerals. A didactic circuit, accompanied by screens displaying films and scientific applications of mineralogy, will reveal a world of unsuspected marvels--priceless both from an aesthetic and scientific point of view. Mimodactylus libanensis “mimo”, the fossil of a pterodactyl is featured in a special wing. This one-of-a-kind complete specimen in the Middle-East was found in Lebanon. It is promoted by means of state-of-the-art modern techniques: a hologram, an auto-stereoscopic movie, a full-scale reconstitution and a game “fly with mimo” – an entertainment that delights children and adults. Moreover, mim hosts a thematic exhibition of 200 marine fossils. “Fish’n’Stone” was organized with the collaboration of Mémoire du Temps. Known throughout the world, those fossils were quarried in the Lebanese Mountains. The history of the fossil formation is shown through an animation that submerses you in the marine life – a time capsule that takes you in a journey to some 100 million of years ago.

Didn't know mother nature harbored so many treasures. Before visiting this museum I was only vaguely aware of the existence of minerals. Elements I remembered from chemics lessons at high school. However here a whole new perspective opened up: a huge variety of of over 1500 minerals are exhibited including radioactive ones! What happens in nature under the influence of temperature, pressure, water given time (millions of years).
There is a small collection of fossils as well, mainly from Mount Lebanon. Don't miss it, as the format is very instructive, participatory and pleasant.
Entrance fee 6000 Lebanese pounds (4 US$) Closed on Mondays
Location is some 200m from the National Museum.

It is a real pleasure to go there and spend the day or the weekend. Great place for the kids, many activities in a very safe and professional environment. I enjoyed having a picnic there in the middle of nature where all what you need is available and the same for camping. I congratulate the team who built this space and we will visit as much as we can, our kids keep asking to go there and many friends want to schedule team gathering there. It is also very suitable for birthday parties.

Fine collection of old Greek and Roman art. Especially the mozaics, sculptures and reliëfs are of great quality and testament to artistic craftmanship.
The documentary about the history of the museum shows the efforts that were made by generations of Lebanese to preserve their history. They were able to salvage and restore a lot of the damage caused by the civil war in the 1970s and 80s.
The new section about funerary traditions -appropriately on show in the basement- is very worthwhile as well. Especially the colorful frescos in the tomb of Tyre with good explanations give you a good idea of how people imagine life after death.
All exhibits are presented in a modern way keeping text (in Arabic, French and English) to the minimum and giving full scope to study objects from different angles.
Take your time. It took me 3 and half hours to get through most of the collection.
Entrance fee 5000 Lebanese Pounds (just over 3 US$)
