Leptis Magna in Al Khums, Libya

IN WHAT IS NOW LIBYA, Leptis Magna was once the shining star of the Roman Empire.

As far as ruins go, the city still stands out as a superior example of Rome’s considerable advances in urban planning and architecture. Despite existing in an unstable nation and sporadically under threat of being caught in the crossfires of civil unrest, it has survived as one of the most complete set of Roman ruins standing.

Originally a Phoenician and Berber foundation, the city became part of the grandiose Roman Empire under Tiberius. Under the reign of Lucius Septimius Severus in 193, Leptis peaked as the third greatest city on the entire continent of Roman Africa. Unfortunately, like so many other Roman cities, the vibrant metropolis was doomed by its growth and ingenuity outgrowing its means, and by mid-4th century, the once glorious city by the sea was heavily abandoned, easily sacked by invaders, and in constant threat of destruction due to war and civil unrest.

While the ruins still stand regally against the sky, that threat has yet to pass. As recently as 2011, civil war has found its way to Leptis Magna, a ready-made bunker, attractive as a place to hide weapons, shield military vehicles, and keep backs to the sea. Despite being under UNESCO’s protective wing, its vulnerability to rebels has prompted NATO to make no promises that it will remain off limits from air strikes if intervention is necessary. Currently the site is quiet, and the empty city sleeps.

Visit Libya

Visit Libya
Libya. Warm sun, warm hearts. A great country with a great history, a country of breathtaking beauty. High mountain chains are just one of the beauties of its fabulous landscape with green fields and sun-drenched Mediterranean beaches. The desert, watered by magnificent oasis, extends far into Africa. Fabulous villages and cities scattered amongst meadows, with oasis everywhere. Historical monuments forests, towering mountains...

and a warm Libyan Arab welcome. Libya's strategic, geographical position and profound history make it a vital link between the eastern and western parts of the Arab world, and between Europe and Africa. The country has known its ups and downs, but the historical monuments are a testimony of the great Libyan civilization of old. Look at the engravings of the AKAKUS mountains, the drawings in the MATCHANDOUSH caves.

The cities of JARMA, ZAKAKRA, and SABHA' in the south, and the historical city of GHIRZA in the centre. Libya has played host to many civilizations, and has enriched civilization in its turn, with writings, drawings and engravings in the caves of TADRART mountains, and archaeological treasures from ATAFT. The Phoenician, Roman, and Byzantine ports of TRIPOLI, SABRATAH, LIBDAH, SHAH'HAT, SUSAH, TUKRAH, and TALMITHA. The old Islamic cities such as SIRT, DARNAH, and AJDABIYA, and other cities in the heart of the desert, including GHADAMES, ZUWAYLAH, JALU, OJLA, GHAT, and FEZZAN. Not forgetting the places and fortresses of GHARYAN, MIZDAH, AL-QARYAT, YIFRAN, JADU, NALUT, MISALLATAH, and AWINAT. The first site most tourists visit is TRIPOLI, Libya's biggest city, the queen of the seas.

It is an historical site. the city of Islamic civilization, Arab art and handicraft, where every monument tells a story. TRIPOLI has changed little since its foundation in the first millennium BC: it is still a lush garden filled with olive trees, palms, grapevines, and orange groves. The city has a wealth of old and new monuments. Travel east or west, to nearby LIBDAH or SABRATAH, and soak up all the history.

Shopping is a great pleasure, especially in the popular markets where you can buy a great variety of Libyan handicrafts such as traditional clothes, carpets, handmade gold and silver jewellery, copper and silver dishes, leather goods, and pottery. Every kind of aquatic sport is practised in the resorts along the coast, where you will also find the port of BENGHAZI, which combines magnificent buildings with large, open spaces.

In nearby SULUQ stands the mausoleum of OMAR MOKHTAR, hero of the Libyan Resistance during the Italian occupation. Take the highway east to the magnificent cities of the Green Mountain: DARNAH with its falls and splendid coast; AL BAYDA', a quiet city high up in the mountains; ancient SHAH'HAT (Cyrene) and beautiful SUSAH (Apollonia), TULMAYTHAH, TUKRAH, RA'S AL HILAL.... Libya offers you two thousand kilometers of splendid beaches, and some beautiful small cities each with its typical architecture and special characteristics, like AUWARAH, TUBRUQ, MISRATAH, AZ ZAWIYAH, AL-KHUMS, and ZLITAN. Explore Libya's desert in WADI ASH SHATI, the plain of AWAYNAT, BRAK, MURZUQ, and the oasis of AL KUFRAH, ZALLAH and BAZIMAH. Then cool off in AL BAYDA' or near AL MARJ, or on the plain of DARNAH.

As you go further and further into the desert, all you meet are waves and waves, the great sand sea, but then there are the refreshing oasis. The history, the monuments and tales told by the locals make this place unique. It is a feast for the senses.. The jewel of the desert is GHADAMES, a mélange of natural beauty, important monuments and a distinctive architectural style for which it is famous. Libya may be the land of ancient civilizations, but it also looks to the future. It is a country of peace. Libya, a land touched by history.

Libya beach by highway

Libya's beautiful beaches (2)

Libya is lined with some stunning beaches.
Libya overlooks the Mediterranean Sea with a coast line around 2.000 km long. This makes Libya's resort beaches among the longest along the Mediterranean Sea. Libya's beaches are characterised by variations in their natural appearances from sandy beaches under the shadows of palm trees to rocky beaches overlooked from above by great hills, such as the one that enjoyed at the Green Mountain Sea Resort.

How Safe Is Libya for Travel?

Full safety review:


Libya is a country located in North Africa, with a coastline along the Mediterranean Sea and in between Egypt to the east and Tunisia to the west.

It also shares borders with Algeria, Chad, Niger, and Sudan.

Geographically, it isn’t too diverse as more than 90% of the country is covered in desert or semidesert.

Culturally, you can definitely broaden your views by visiting Libya: you can see the Leptis Magna, a prominent city of the Roman Empire whose ruins are located in Al Khums, on the coast where the Wadi Lebda meets the sea.

Overall Libya isn't safe and many governments are advising their citizens against traveling to Libya because of the current conflict following the bloody war to oust the Gadaffi dictatorship. This country is dangerous and if you're currently in Libya, make plans to leave as soon as the opportunity presents itself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Leptis Magna,(Arabic: لَبْدَة‎ ) also known as Lectis Magna (or Lepcis Magna as it is sometimes spelled), also called Lpqy, Neapolis, Lebida or Lebda to modern-day residents of Libya, was a prominent city of the Roman Empire. Its ruins are located in Al Khums, Libya, 130 km east of Tripoli, on the coast where the Wadi Lebda meets the sea. The site is one of the most spectacular and unspoiled Roman ruins in the Mediterranean.

Libya, formally the State of Libya, is a country in North Africa's Maghreb area. It is bordered on the north by the Mediterranean Sea, on the east by Egypt, on the southeast by Sudan, on the south by Chad, on the south by Niger, on the southwest by Algeria, and on the northwest by Tunisia.



Libya, a country in North Africa's Maghreb area, is the subject of this virtual guide. The Libyan desert (part of the Sahara) covers around 90% of the nation, making cultivation and thus life only viable in a few scattered oases.



The continent's fourth-largest country is roughly the same size as Spain, Portugal, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom combined.

Libya's largest population concentrations are scattered along the Mediterranean Sea's more fertile coast.


Libya's economy is predominantly based on petroleum profits, which account for nearly 95 percent of export earnings and 60 percent of GDP. Libya has one of the highest nominal per capita GDPs in Africa, thanks to its oil income and small population.

Tripoli

With a population of roughly 1.1 million people in 2019, Tripoli is Libya's capital and largest city. It is situated on the border of the desert in northwest Libya, on a rocky outcropping protruding into the Mediterranean Sea and forming a bay.

Tarabulus Al-Gharb is the Arabic name for the capital. The Phoenicians founded the city in the 7th century BC, and it was originally known as Oea.

Tripoli has a population of approximately 2.2 million people. It is the country's principal economic hub and the country's center of banking, finance, and communication, as well as one of Libya's most important commercial and manufacturing centres. Arabic is the official language.

Royal Palace of Tripoli
The Royal Palace of Tripoli is one of Libya's largest and most beautiful structures. It was constructed in the 1930s during the reign of Italo Balbo. The Palazzo del Governatore was its official name.

It served as the seat of the Italian Governor-General before becoming the seat of the English Governor during the British Mandate period, and then King Idris Al-Senussi from 1951 to 1964.

It is situated on a steep hill in the Dahra area, which is regarded as one of Tripoli's highest points, and from its balconies, you can see most of the city's structures, including the ancient city and the seaside.
Its design combines native and Roman elements, combining with Tripoli's iconic Red Castle. Its interior walls are covered in themes, murals, and magnificent paintings by well-known Italian sculptors and artists.

The palace was neglected and neglected after the September 1969 coup, and most of its furnishings, including furniture and fine artworks, were lost. The ornaments and roots were distorted, with some scraped and cracked.

Following the US invasion on Libya in 1986, it sustained some damage and was transformed into a museum known as the 'Libya Museum.'

It was converted into a public library known as the 'National Library' in recent decades after normal upkeep rather than specialist technological care.


Leptis Magna


The ancient city of Leptis Magna was founded by Phoenicians of Tyre or Sidon in the 7th century BC, and was later settled by Carthaginians around the end of the 6th century BC. The city's natural harbor at the mouth of Wadi Labdah aided its development as a major commerce hub.

Tony by Mediterranean Sea at ancient ruins of Leptis Magna, Libya

Tony standing, listening to the crashing waves of the Mediterranean Sea hitting the beach near where the ancient ruins of Leptis Magna lie in Libya. Located about a two-hour drive east of Tripoli, Libya's capital, the ruins of a large settlement of both Carthaginian and Roman cultures is a vast complex, roughly one third of which, has been excavated.
Enjoy the sound and sight of the crashing waves. Cheers, Tony :).
