Tripoli - General Info
The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) advises against all travel to Tripoli.
Description:
Tripoli, in North Lebanon, is built on a rocky promontory. It’s position enhanced by the presence of offshore islands and natural ports. This is a city where the modern and medieval blend easily into a lively and hospitable metropolis. Modern Tripoli is divided into two parts: El – Mina ( the port area and site of the ancient city ) and the town of Tripoli proper. The medieval city, at the foot of the Crusader castle, is where most of the historical sites are located.
Tripoli is predominately made up of Muslims, so women should cover their legs with long trousers/skirt and not bear their shoulders. Men should not wear shorts which are too short.
Position:

“Tripoli is predominately made up of Muslims, so women should cover their legs with long trousers/skirt and not bare their shoulders. Men shouldn’t not wear shorts which are too short.“ not true at all, I am there now and this is not a true statement. Tripoli is like any other Mediterranean city. The above statement only applies in both Christians and Muslim worship sites.
