Beirut - Three hotels
In this pano you see the Monroe Hotel, the Phoenicia Intercontinental and the Holiday Inn... the Holiday Inn??? Indeed, the building you see when the pano opens was built in 1974 and was just about ready when the civil war broke out in Lebanon. After the war the owners had a quarrel what to do next. Until now, no decision was made and the building still shows the marks of the war.
