Lebanon
Tyre, the most important city of the Phoenicians, but like Carthage the ruins you can stil see today are mostly from Roman times.
Felafel in Tyre, only 50 cents a sandwich, and I don't really need to tell you how ridiculously good they are do I?
Byblos, 8000 years of human settlement from prehistoric times to the Crusades.
A Crusader castle on the road to Tripoli

Wow, the Temple of Bacchus looks amazing... Did you get to explore inside it?
And yum, those felafels look really good!
I did get to go in, and the detail in the stone work, especially at the top of the columns was incredible!
