The Siege of Tyre (332 BC) marks one of Alexander the Great's most challenging and brilliant military campaigns. Visitors to Tyre can explore the causeway he built to reach the island city, which transformed the site's geography. The siege ended with the city's capture and destruction, but its legacy is visible in the archaeological remains and the city's enduring strategic importance. Walking the causeway and viewing the ancient harbor area gives a tangible sense of this epic event.
