Tripoli Travel Safety and Levantine Food Debate
Краткое содержание
The r/Lebanon community discusses whether visitors with visible tattoos, piercings, or a cross can comfortably explore Tripoli’s souk, historic sites, and landmarks such as Khan al-Saboun and the Rachid Karami Fair. The announcement also raises questions about claims to Lebanese and other Levantine foods after a surprising discovery in Crete, sparking discussion about culture and identity.
What??
Found this in Crete, Greece. I thought that Israelis claiming that some Lebanese / other levant food is theirs was a joke and just ragebaiting us, but do people actually believe this shit? I found this surprising especially because I see "free palestine" graffiti every few meters here.

Visiting Tripoli
I am in my 30s now and i never ever visited tripoli
I am planning to visit it this month but im still a little hesitant due to all the rumors i hear from some people
Is it okay for a guy, with tattoos and piercings to visit there safely?
I want to visit historical sites, the souk, hammam al abed, 5an al saboun, ma3rad rachid karami, etc...
Will i be judged, frowned upon, and get weird looks?
Unfortunately, i once visited the old souk in Saida and i got very weird frowning looks, which led me never to go there again.
I guess it was due to the fact that i have multiple visible tattoos, 1 piercing, and i was wearing a cross
No offence to anyone, but i would like to know if this would be a problem if i visit
Thanks
