Visitor Information

The only tourist information office in Beirut is on the first floor of the Ministry of Tourism building, located at 550 Rue Banque du Liban, Hamra (tel. 01-343-073; www.destinationlebanon.gov.lb). Its huge windows overlook Rue Hamra, although access is actually around the back via the covered car park.
