As I visited the ancient ruins of Baalbek, I was struck by the mystery surrounding the construction of the massive trilithon stones. These stones weigh an estimated 800 tons each and were transported from a quarry over a mile away! The local experts could not explain how such an incredible feat could be achieved with the technology at the time. As I explored further, I learned about the site's rich history that goes back thousands of years. From the Phoenicians to the Romans, many civilizations left their mark on this incredible place, making it a must-visit destination for anyone interested in ancient history.
