Tripoli Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Tripoli in Libya.
Tripoli is the capital of the desert state of Libya. The old town is known as the Medina and with its narrow lanes and squat buildings it is a combination of Arabian, North African and Mediterranean cultures. The joie de vivre of the local people is obvious and music and dance are part of their daily life. In antiquity the city was called Oea that was one of the three cities of Tripolitania and in Roman times this section of the coast contained the trading towns of Leptis Magna and Sabratha. Since 1963 Tripoli has been the capital of the Great Socialist Libyan-Arab People’s Republic. The old town contains a souk that was almost fully abandoned following the Great Revolution as private trading was then forbidden but when the law was abolished in 1988 it once again sprang to life. Modern Tripoli is undergoing constant development. Contemporary architecture is everywhere with skyscrapers that contain offices and apartments that have been built on the periphery of the city. Around seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is still an impressive structure that dates back to the second century A.D. Tripoli, along with the historic towns of the former Tripolitania, is one of the most spectacular places of ancient culture in North Africa and the heritage of an advanced civilisation located on the edge of the Sahara.

I feel so bad for Libya and the countless Libyans whose lives have been lost in this conflict. I hope the country returns to its former glory.

[@gianfrancocatania7386]

Sarkosy mus be processed for his action.

[@samiralgeria6507]

May Allah protect the great Libya and my Libyan brothers&sisters

[@joudtayeb1521]

Libya is so amazing and nice and I'm proud to be a Libyan

[@davebishop5159]

I was stationed on the outskirts of Tripoli at the Wheelus Air Force Base in 1965 and 1966.The Air Force Base and it's runways are now the International Airport. We had many Libyans working at the Base and I got to know them and their families well. I very much enjoyed my stay there visiting the city and the impressive Roman ruins of Sabratha and Leptis Magna. I got out of the Air Force in late 1966 and always wanted to go back to visit but the war in 1967 changed the condition of the area and it got worse when Ghadaffi took over from King Idris. Like others stating here, I hope the country can overcome it's political and warlike hardships and once again welcome people from other countries (safely) to see the amazing sites.

Wars a hoax

[@Determined..]

Thank you very much for your Honesty...you are always welcome Back in Tripoli.
But sense the British, the US Planted that Cancer called Israel in the Arab Lands by Force.. sense that time trouble never stopped happening along the Arab world not only Libya.
Salute

Going on Holiday. Cant decide between Tripoli, Mogadishu or Gaza.

[@PyroBatang]

lol this video is before the war.. the libya now is not safe for any tourist criminals every where also terrorist

[@ricardo_boutique]

You really, really could not feel the irony on the air?

[@eccIefechan]

As bad as Gaza is, it's nowhere near comparable to Mogadishu. Raqqa and Mosul would be better on that list!

[@-Blast]

Jesus God Libya is far from being safe now

[@MH-hy2ot]

This video is from 2006!

[@shekharsharma1490]

Roman Heaven !!!!!

[@DeneCroxford-ko4cz]

Went to Libya in 2006. One of the most beautiful countries I have ever seen and I have visited over 50 countries and lived in about half a dozen. Definitely, worth a visit but I am not too sure about security these days, I hope not too much has been destroyed.

[@olbiomoiros]

I was looking about tripoli in Arcadia Greece, but then I stumbled across this.

[@Gregtsim]

Είναι μια αρχαία ελληνική πόλη

[@aswalhidayatussalam442]

Good

[@user-dj2pm6oc7b]

很有文化的地方，有雕像，神殿，有大自然的美，天地合一，蒼海一粟，人何其渺小…不知道阿里巴巴和40大盜是從這裏傳出去的嗎？

[@user-ej3kx4ho7e]

This Video is From 2006!
Didn’t talk about Modern areas?
Tripoli is full of Modern Monuments.

[@modshroom]

Rip

[@millo402]

Sabratha is a on the coast therefore could not have been covered with the desert and, half of the city was covered with sea water and not SAND.....

[@davebishop5159]

Sorry, both Sabratha and Leptis Magna (also on the coast) were both covered with sand after they were abandoned. I walked through both cities in 1965 and 1966 and on either side of the uncovered roads, you could see the remains of buildings and roads still covered with sand.

[@rippingale100]

millo kaabar it was sand

[@ahmadlamien4490]

For fucks sake it's just fish

[@rippingale100]

This viedo needs to be scrapped.
