Come with me as I explore the city of Tyre, its food, and its attractions. Tyre is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. The entire city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: https://teespring.com/stores/davids-been-here My friend and guide Nico and I would be exploring several of them today! Our exploration started at the Tyre Hippodrome, which was an ancient chariot racing venue. It seated up to 20,000 spectators and lies just to the south of the Al-Bass Tyre Necropolis. It was built by the Romans back in the 2nd century CE and became a UNESCO Heritage site in 1984. I could see lots of old houses, crumbled walls, and an ancient tomb outside of the hippodrome. We walked down the main street, or Cardo Maximus, and continued through the large, arched gate. They renovate it often. After climbing the seating, we drove to one of the longest public beaches in Lebanon. There are usually tents and seafood vendors there, but the beach was currently flooded. From there, we headed to the Old Town of Tyre. We stopped at Sandwich Mahfouz to get some fatayel, a pita sandwich with sliced lamb, tarator, tomatoes, and pickles. You can also get sandwiches with morrow (brain), sausage, kofta, liver, and kidneys.
