Third edition of Lebanon’s Favorite Village
20-7-2018
In partnership with Fransabank, Suk el Tayyib, Live Love Beirut initiative and Dbayeh Waterfront, L’Orient Le Jour launched the third edition of Lebanon’s Favorite Village at Dbayeh Waterfront City. The 10 participating villages are: Ain Dara, Baaqline, Bkassin, Brummana, Anfeh, Jib Jnin, Jwaya, Kfur, Marjey3oon and Qartaba. During the event, the minister of state for planning affairs in the caretaker government, Michel Pharaon, sustained his conviction in rural tourism which he said boasts tremendous potential for growth. Pharaon stressed that each town or village has its own particular charm and distinctive features to attract tourism. Similarly, the head of marketing and corporate communication at Fransabank, Dania Kassar, said that due to official slackness towards the industry, private initiatives, including L’Orient Le Jour/ Fransabank initiative, seek to promote internal tourism, mainly cultural and eco-tourism. “But how far can we achieve in the absence of a real tourism policy and budget?” Kassar asked.
