Beirut Guided Cultural Visit – 22.5 x 14.5 cm, 96 pages soft cover, comes with a map of Beirut – By Francoise Hbeyka (Hobeika)

While adopting the privileged status of 2009 Beirut World Book Capital, Beirut deserves well to have finally its first tourist book-guide entirely dedicated to its honor. This book aims to help the reader to get maximum of information in a minimum of reading time. It summarizes the historical, geographical, religious, cultural and anecdotal aspects of the Lebanese capital. Provided with a flying card of the city, the book guides easily and appropriately foreign tourists as well as Lebanese in quest of a methodically documented visit. Possibility to proceed zone by zone; the Downtown, zone A, is divided up in sectors. When the tourist arrives at a sector, the monuments are described according to the itinerary that he follows and not thematically or chronologically. The paragraphs in color figuring in a zone or a sector are not necessarily related neither to the zone nor to the sector; these are curiosities categories introduced in an enriching puzzle system (ex s several architecture’s categories are scattered. Besides, there are small introductions about personalities whose name is assigned to a street or a monument, in order to familiarize the visitor, puzzle system, with the history of the country (to avoid annoying and tiring tourist with names that he doesn’t understand). It is the first tourist guidebook, as the ones of Europe, introducing great Lebanese painters, Corm, Onsi, Srour, Mourani, Farroukh, Wehbi, Howayeck, and Gibran, hoping and wishing that Lebanon will soon manage a permanent Museum in their honor.

Beyrouth Visite Culturelle Guidée – 22.5 x 14.5 cm, 96 pages, avec cartes de Beyrouth – par Francoise Hbeyka (Hobeika)

En adoptant le statut privilégié de Beyrouth Capitale Mondiale du Livre 2009, Beyrouth mérite bien d’avoir enfin son premier livre-guide touristique entièrement consacré à son honneur. Ce livre vise à permettre au lecteur d’accéder à un maximum d’informations en un minimum de temps de lecture. Il résume les aspects historiques, géographiques, religieux, culturels et anecdotiques de la capitale libanaise. Muni d’une carte volante de la ville, le livre servira de guide pratique et facile aussi bien aux touristes étrangers qu’aux Libanais en quête d’une visite méthodiquement documentée. Possibilité de procéder zone par zone ; le Centre-ville, zone A, est reparti en secteurs. Quand le touriste arrive à un secteur, les monuments sont décrits en fonction de l’itinéraire qu’il suit et non pas thématiquement ou chronologiquement. Les paragraphes en couleurs et qui figurent dans le texte d’un secteur ne sont pas nécessairement rattachés à ce secteur, ce sont des rubriques curiosités introduites dans un système puzzle enrichissant (ex plusieurs rubriques architectures disséminées). Il ya des petites introductions sur les personnages dont le nom est attribué à une rue ou un monument, afin de familiariser le visiteur, système puzzle, avec l’histoire du pays (éviter de laisser le visiteur encombré et fatigué par des noms qu’il ne comprend pas). C’est le premier guide touristique , à l’instar des guides en Europe, qui introduit de grands peintres libanais, Corm, Onsi, Srour, Mourani, Farrouk, Wehbi, Howayeck, Gibran, tout en espérant que le Liban ait un jour un Musée permanent en honneur des peintres libanais.
