Libanon - Paris des Mittleren Ostens: neuer Besucher-Rekord in 2009
au.news.yahoo.com meldet:
More than 1.9 million tourists visited Lebanon in 2009, the highest number of visitors to the mountainous Arab nation ever. The new figure exceeds those from the time before Lebanon's 1975-90 civil war, when Beirut was dubbed the "Paris of the Middle East". Figures released this week show that 1,851,081 tourists visited Lebanon in 2009, a 39 per cent increase from the previous year. The 2009 number is the highest ever and broke the 1974 record of 1.4 million tourists, the ministry reported.
