In the Streets of Tyre Lebanon

Picture from the Christian Quarter in Tyre or Sour, Lebanon.The streets in the el-Mina neighborhood of Tyre (Sour) are so narrow that two cars cannot pass each other.

El-Mina is the Christian Quarter of Tyre and is located on a peninsula. Actually, the peninsula used to be an island which was connected to the mainland by Alexander the Great after he conquered Tyre.

Within walking distance from el-Mina, you will find the Tyre harbor and the local market (souks).
