The Jewish cemetery in Beirut, (2008)

The Jewish cemetery of Beirut, located close to Sodeco Square, is the only Jewish cemetery in Beirut, Lebanon. It is also accessible via the Damascus Road (also known as "Rue de Damas"). Some of the gravestones have been broken during the Lebanese civil war. But it is still a functional cemetery, and is currently used by Lebanese Jews.
