Why Borj Hammoud

A visit to Bourj Hammoud is a journey into the resilient heart of Beirut, where a story of revival is etched into the very fabric of the city. Founded by Armenian survivors, its streets are a captivating tapestry of weathered, ornate architecture and relentless, vibrant hustle and bustle. This is the authentic, unfiltered Beirut—a world away from the polished city center, thrumming with the energy of artisans and markets. The experience culminates in its sublime Armenian food, where you can taste this enduring spirit in every bite of a perfectly spiced lahmajoun, delicate manti, or powerful soujouk, making a meal here a profound cultural immersion as much as a culinary delight.
