Jounieh hugs a crescent-shaped bay north of Beirut, where the Mediterranean meets the slopes of Mount Lebanon. Its corniche is perfect for a seaside stroll, while the Old Souk (Souk el-Ahad) buzzes with small shops selling handicrafts, spices, and street food. By night, the city transforms with bustling bars, clubs, and restaurants along the waterfront. The iconic Teleferique cable car climbs from Jounieh to Harissa, offering breathtaking views. Jounieh blends coastal relaxation with urban energy, making it a favorite getaway for locals and tourists alike.
