Tripoli Tour & IFTAR - Tripoli Tour & IFTAR - Tripoli District

  • Ramadan Karim

    The holy month of Ramadan has just started, and this calls for a special Iftar among VT members. Lebanon is a diversified religious community, so let’s all be the perfect example of what Lebanon should be.

    Tripoli is our target.

    The tour in Tripoli will start from the citadel. There will be a detailed explanation of the history and the architecture of the monument and a full tour of the citadel.
    Then you will descend the staircase to reach the Historical Access. From there, you will head to The New Bath, then to Mansouri Mosque, to the Jewelry Souk, Gypsy Bath (Hammam el Nouri), Khan el Saboun, then back to the Historical Path in order to reach to The Taylor’s Khan (Khan el Khayyateen) and The Egyptian Khan (Khan el Masriyyeen).
    From there, you will continue to see, from a distance, the mosque and the school of Bortassieh.
    Then you will visit Souk el Haraj and Soldier’s Khan (Khan el 3askar).

    Throughout the tour, Mr. Elias Khlat, a faithful member and friend, will guide us and provide us with valuable information in order to make the most of our journey together.

    The tour will be subject to minor modifications according to some conditions.

    Finally, we will head for the restaurant where a delicious Iftar will be served right on time!
