Leptis magna:

Leptis Magna, once a significant urban center in North Africa, sits by the Mediterranean Sea at the entrance of the Leptis Valley, a natural harbor situated 3 kilometers east of Al-Khoms and 120 kilometers east of Libya’s capital, Tripoli. During the Roman Empire, this city held great importance in North Africa. Recognizing its historical significance, UNESCO designated Leptis Magna as a World Heritage Site in Libya in 1982.

Apollonia:

Apollonia, a small city in Libya, is situated along the Mediterranean coast within the Green Mountain region, approximately 30 kilometers northeast of Al Bayda. 

This city is built upon the ancient ruins of Apollonia, which is regarded as an open-air archaeological museum. Sousse, another city, lies in the Jebel Akhdar district nearby.

With a rich history dating back to the 7th century BC, Apollonia was originally established by the Greeks after the founding of Shahat (Cyrene). They named it Apollonia in honor of their deity Apollo, the god associated with beauty and music. Initially serving as a port for Shahat, Apollonia flourished and eventually became the capital of the Five Cities region during the 5th century AD in the Byzantine era. Ongoing research and excavation at the archaeological site reveal Greek, Roman, and Byzantine artifacts. Apollonia boasts a delightful climate and captivating natural surroundings. Located about 15 kilometers to the east is a prehistoric cave where two Neanderthal skulls were discovered.

Sabrata:

Sabratha is a city in Libya that had the Greek name “Leproton Polus Kai Lemen” (a port and city of Lebroton) before being known as “Sabratha.” European travelers in the 19th century, including Barthes and von Maltzan, documented the ruins of Sabratha. They described various features such as stages, columns, arches, a dock, and marble statues, including a well-proportioned female statue. In 1911, during the Italian occupation of Libya, the Italian government sent historians and archaeologists to search for Roman antiquities in Sabratha and other Libyan cities. Extensive excavations took place from 1923 to 1936, resulting in the discovery and restoration of numerous buildings, streets, theaters, and cemeteries that still stand today. 

Notably, the large theater in Sabratha hosts annual concerts.

Sabratha is renowned for its sandy beach along the Mediterranean Sea, surrounded by pine forests and parks like the Sabratha Family Park, the Zoo, and Dhahrat Banur. From these locations, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the area and the archaeological city.

Tripoli:

Tripoli, the capital of Libya, is situated in the northwestern part of the country. The city is constructed on a rocky peninsula that overlooks the Mediterranean Sea, directly across from the southern tip of Sicily.

One of the main attractions in Tripoli is the old city located in the center, which draws many tourists. It has a rich history, particularly during the Ottoman and Carnamelli era, when Tripoli served as a hub for trans- Saharan trade connecting the Mediterranean Sea through its port. Many buildings from that period, including the old hotels, still stand today and continue to entice and fascinate visitors.

It shares borders with the Tajoura region to the east, Janzour to the west, the Al-Sawani region to the south, and the Mediterranean Sea to the north. At the heart of the city lies Martyrs’ Square and the Red Serail.

Qasr al-Hajj is an ancient fortified structure in Libya, resembling a circular granary or grain silo. It is situated approximately 130 kilometers from Tripoli, along the road to Al-Aziziya and Al-Jawf. Constructed in the 7th century AH (13th century AD), its primary purpose was to provide storage for grains and crops for the families residing in the region. In exchange for utilizing the silo, the families would contribute a quarter of their harvest.

According to local accounts, the owner of the silo would

suspend its operations periodically, during which time those who returned from the silo would teach the Qur’an and Islamic sciences to the people of the surrounding area. Initially, the building comprised 114 rooms, a number believed by many to symbolize the number of surahs (chapters) in the Qur’an—a viewpoint commonly held among the villagers in the region. Presently, the structure consists of 119 rooms, as 10 rooms were divided due to inheritance disputes, and an additional 29 basements were added over time.
