First glimpse at the city

I woke up to find a sunny Beirut. Weather is so nice you can walk outside without a jacket :)
Direction the office. 5 min taxi ride and first glimpse of the city. I've always been impressed by how fast Lebanon has rebuilt Beirut over the year. You can still see some buildings with marks from the bombing here and there, but the overall impression is a modern and dynamic city center.
Over lunch (yes on a terrace!) I quickly took a few picture of the street nearby the office. It looks old but it was build recently. I found it great that they rebuild the city matching the original historical style.

Now back to work :)
