Soe Libya

Tripoli the beautiful

There are so many beautiful destinations in the world that has been neglected by tourists. For various reasons there are places on this planet that people have never even heard of. One of these places is Libya, specifically the beautiful city of Tripoli. It may be because the country is a very conservative Muslim nation and westerners tend not to visit these places. But once you understand to respect their culture you can have an enjoyable time. Libya is like the jazz hybrid of Africa, it is appealing and fun.

Since Libya is a Muslim nation one should be modest in dressing. They believe that showing bare skin is indecent so wearing skimpy clothes should be out of the picture.

In terms of travelling rest assured Libya will be a safe destination, crime is minimal precisely because f the conservative government that stamps down harshly on crime. As per safety while travelling, you will be fine, unlike many other destinations in the world.

Now when you enter the capital city of Tripoli there are plenty of hotels to choose from. Next to the old city (known as Medina) there is a hotel that many international tourists stay in; it is called the Corinthia Hotel. There are several other hotels and hostels that are smaller, cheaper but safe and clean as well.

In Tripoli, you can visit the white sandy beaches, the National Jamahiriya Museum (an art museum), and Leptis Magna which have the ruins of the Roman civilization. When you explore these places you will get a taste of the Historical significance of this city and this country. Though most of us do not realize, Africa is filled with history as rich as Europe and Asia.

Visiting Libya and Tripoli can be an enjoyable experience for tourists. Just don’t forget to respect the country’s rule of law. Unfortunately, there has been a series of violence in the last few days, so you might want to avoid travelling over here for some time. But as soon as a resolution is found between the government and the protestors, life should become smooth again

Could we have seen the Libya revolt coming?

In a word, no.

The recent civil unrest across Northern Africa and many Middle Eastern countries came as a shock to many (not least the travel companies who spent a fortune pulling out their holiday makers from Tunisia and Egypt). While the warning signs of unrest were brewing, it still did not give rise to any suspicion for a full-scale revolt – after all, in these stricken countries the undercurrent of anger always pervades. Up until last month, it was business as usual, and even with the very best Galvan research in the world we couldn’t have predicted the scale of rebellion which was to follow.

You get the feeling that the Western World is cheering on civilians in these countries, and in a way, rightly so. We should never overlook or forget the loss of life (on either the demonstrators or state authority’s side) which is on the rise throughout these troubled countries, but there is admiration to be had for anyone who rises up against their oppressors in the face of bullet fire and tear canisters. And their governments seem to have reacted in the right way – leaders flee when they realise they’re not welcome and, for the most part, state authorities understand that opening fire on protests will have an extremely negative effect.

What the outcome to all this will be is also hard to predict, and indeed how far it will spread. One only hopes that nationals will succeed in their good fights, but not land themselves back at square one by appointing another dictator afterwards.
