album two - the chouf, byblos

the castle and residence that emir fakhreddin built in the chouf mountains in south lebanon. hester stanhope stayed here, too. apparently elton john played a gig here a few years ago.

wedding shoes for the bride. so she can look down on her future husband. and some detail in the hammam of the castle's harem. the ladies bathed in style.

view from my hotel room in byblos. hope you are jealous!
