Lebanon in a Picture

This very ornate and beautifully restored building stood empty in the... (Beirut, Lebanon) This very ornate and beautifully restored building stood empty in the heart of downtown Beirut for a very long time. Its owners could not find a taker for a building that was surrounded by parking lots and little else. The parking lots are still there, but Le Conseil d'état or State Council (a government entity) finally understood the merits of being located in a visually striking building in the middle of Beirut and moved there a couple of years ago (not sure of the date). If only more of downtown Beirut could find takers! #architecture #ornate #traditional #oriental #motif #decorations #decor #exteriordecoration #designer #arches #windows #lighting #natural #colorful #vibrant #brick #white #location #downtown #beirut #lebanon #instabest #instadaily #instalike #instalove #instarchitecture #photooftheday
