Byblos, Lebanon

Byblos is the largest city in the Mount Lebanon Governorate of Lebanon. It is believed by many to be the oldest continuously-inhabited city in the world. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It was late afternoon when we reached Byblos, a pretty little fishing port with an ancient harbour, medieval town centre and few archaeological sites.

Just walking around, taking in the sights .....being curious......what a fun way to spend the time.

The Port

Love to watch men fishing. The silence...the wait....the patience....

Three Men Fishing....

.....and a Fourth Man, Watching from above!

Inside the Marine Fossil Museum

"May the imprints of your love stay for ever seen,

Despite winds and waves, like those of this fossil."

I spy two ladies fishing too!
