Why Walk Byblos

Byblos (Jbeil) has been continuously inhabited for at least 7,000 years, making it one of the oldest cities in the world. The Phoenicians exported papyrus through here — giving us the word 'Bible' (from Byblos, the Greek word for papyrus). The compact old town contains a Crusader castle, Phoenician ruins, Roman columns, and a medieval harbor.
