Sidon (Saida)

Beirut, Lebanon

Sidon (Saida) — places to visit in Beirut
Sidon (Saida) in Beirut — view 2
Sidon, or Saida, is a historic port city on Lebanon's Mediterranean coast, known for its ancient ruins and vibrant fishing harbor. Key sites include the Sea Castle, a 13th-century fortress built by the Crusaders, and the bustling souks where the remnants of Phoenician civilization still resonate amid the narrow streets and traditional markets. Spend a few hours soaking in the atmosphere, particularly around the old town where you can wander along the waterfront promenade and sample fresh seafood from local vendors. The best time to visit is in the late afternoon when the sun sets over the sea, casting a warm glow on the stone facades.
