Beirut has long been synonym to war, destruction, endless fighting, but at present, the city has turned to the opposite. The place to go to taste this construction frenzy and the new spirit is the Beirut Central District.
Most homes are being rebuilt, either partly or completely, and the same goes for mosques and official buildings, most of which were badly damaged as well. The area shows its historical richness through preserved and clearly displayed Roman baths and remains of temples and Roman streets. Apart from the Romans, the city has been home to Ottomans, Abbassids, Omayyads and Phoenicians, among others. Projects to uncover Beirut's history are under way. This makes Beirut a city rich in history, and its history is well integrated into modern Beirut.
