From bullet-pocked buildings hosting techno raves to Hezbollah-approved graffiti tours, Beirut’s cultural resilience defies decades of conflict.
**Archaeology of War**
The 2020 port explosion unearthed Phoenician shipwrecks buried since 300 BCE. Architects now incorporate shrapnel into rebuilding efforts—a museum’s façade uses 7,000 glass fragments from blast sites.
**Soundtrack of Resistance**
Underground vinyl presses produce albums on melted tank plastic. The band *Mashrou’ Leila*’s banned lyrics are now etched into olive groves as QR codes.
**Cannabis Renaissance**
Following hashish decriminalization, Bekaa Valley farms grow CBD strains funding refugee schools. “Green architects” build hempcrete shelters that absorb explosions—tested in conflict zones globally.
**Precarious Hope**
Beirut’s rebirth remains fragile: power cuts last 20 hours daily, while 80% of artists plan to emigrate. Yet in abandoned cinemas, VR installations replay the city’s golden age—a digital balm for collective trauma.
