beautiful

 

 

I went to Baalbek from Beirut. Baalbek has great ruins. This temple is called “Temple of Jupiter”

 

 

The Temple of Jupiter was constructed in a complex area called Sanctuary of Heliopolitan Zeus. It is believed that the temple of Venus was built by the Roman Empire around the first century. Venus is a strong goddess of beauty nowadays, but in Rome it was gathering faith as the mother of the founding founder, Aeneas. In the second and third centuries, the temples of the main god Jupiter and the sake god Bacchus were erected, and the three temples are considered to be larger than the Greek parthenon.

 

1世紀ごろに、ローマ帝国によってビーナスの神殿が建てられたと考えられています。ビーナスは今日では美の女神という側面が強いですが、ローマにおいては建国の祖アイネイアスの母として信仰を集めていました。2~3世紀には主神ジュピターと酒神バッカスの神殿が建立され、3つの神殿はギリシャパルテノン神殿よりも大きいとされています。

So this ruin is bigger than Parthenōn!!!

 

 

How to go is easy. Bus,(of course Hitchhike is easy!) start from Cola bus terminal. It cost around 5-7000LLP

 

 

Once bus stopped Chotoura where is on the way and changed another one. Then one taxi driver asked me

 

 

 

 

 

 “Do you wanna go Damascus??”

I know that war is almost finished. However It’s not so dangerous, I don’t wanna die haha. 

 

 

分かっちゃいるけどシリアに今は行きたくない。すげー好奇心くすぐられる質問で笑ったけどwww

 

 

I refused.

 

 

The bus run total 2h from Beirut. 

 

 

乗り換えたバスの運ちゃんが微妙に1000LLPぼったくろうとしてきて「釣り足りねーぞ!テメェ!払え!絶対よこせ!」とギャーギャー喚いたら払ってくれたから結果的にいい人。

 

 

Then immediately part of ruins showed their face.

Entrance fee

 

 

If you say I’m student, fee is 10kLPP. After seeing, you will think fee is cheap...

 

 

As this time was not touristic season, I could walk pretty freedom. Park is very huge and condition also good.

good view, ruins,weather,,,, I could stay there more 2h... 

 

 

But in this time I had a limit to travel in Lebanon. That’s why I went to next destination. Next destination is Bisharri. Although it’s close to Baalbek, road is closed as snowing. I had to comeback Beirut once...

 

 

While I was doing hitchhike , a man who works back of me, invited to take a coffee.

Finally somehow unknown whom we didn’t know asked what I do and stopped bus. Then he paid.

 

 

“Heeeyyy!! What are you doing!!??”

 

 

“It’s my pressure!! Lebanese are nice 👍!!!!

 

 

Absolutely I say Lebanese are wonderful!!!
