Baabda Palace, Presidential palace in Baabda, Lebanon
The palace sits on a hilltop southeast of Beirut, featuring multiple buildings, halls for state functions, and landscaped gardens with fountains.
Built in 1956, the palace sustained damage during political conflicts from 1988 to 1990 and underwent restoration in the early 1990s.
The palace holds ministerial meetings on alternating weeks with the Grand Serail, serving as a center for Lebanese governmental operations.
Lebanese citizens and foreign visitors can participate in guided tours of the palace on the first Saturday of each month from 9 AM to 2 PM.
The Ministry of Defense and military posts surround the palace compound, creating a secured administrative complex overlooking the capital.
