Beyrut has survived many years of war and is seeking to regain its beauty. 24 years after my last visit, I decided to see if I could recognize anything.
I descended towards the sea, and sat there, watching the waves break on the rocks, and thinking back in time. After this melancholical stop, I continued to walk along the boulevard. After some time, I arrived in some old quarters which were heavily damaged by the war. Buildings almost without a roof, with hundreds of bullet holes in the walls, strong evidence of what made life here much less paradisical than it was.... But always, everywhere, huge cranes towering over all the destroyed buildings, like fingers pointing to a promising future for the city.
