EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scenic beauty and elegance of Ras Beirut, a luxurious residential neighborhood in the vibrant city of Beirut, Lebanon. Established in the early 20th century, Ras Beirut, which literally means 'the tip of Beirut,' was once the preferred residence of the city's elite. The neighborhood's picturesque streets, dotted with grand villas and mansions, offered breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea. In this image, we see a tranquil scene of Ras Beirut, with its narrow streets lined with tall trees and elegant houses. The American University of Beirut (AUB), founded in 1866, is prominently featured in the background. AUB, the most famous international educational institution in Lebanon, has played a pivotal role in shaping the country's intellectual and cultural landscape. The university's iconic red brick buildings, nestled amidst lush greenery, add to the neighborhood's distinctive character. The photograph, taken in 1907, offers a glimpse into the rich history and allure of Ras Beirut, a neighborhood that has long been synonymous with luxury, education, and refinement in Beirut and beyond. Today, Ras Beirut remains a desirable residential area, attracting families and students from around the world who seek a high-quality education and a luxurious lifestyle in one of the Middle East's most dynamic cities.
