  • Only if you are into arts, paintings in particular. Its a small museum but the paintings and the sketches are superb. Not recommended for young children.

  • It was well worth it, luckily for us it was quite so we've taken our time. Ofcourse I highly recommend it.
  • If Lebanon were not my country, I would have chosen it to be. The popular quote from Gebran Khalil Gebran to describe how much Lebanon is beautiful. A Lebanese writer, poet and painter, a real artist. His museum in Bcharee is a must see you will be amazed exploring his works. His museum in the heart of Bcharee overlooking the Wadisha Valley. Recommended to visit
  • 100% worth the visit. Wasnt aware of Gibran before visiting but so glad we stopped here. The building and surroundings alone are worth coming for as well as the wonderful artwork inside (which was very Da Vinci-esque). They have guides in English for anyone wondering and the manager/owner was extremely friendly and courteous. I cannot recommend enough anyone visiting Lebanon to come here.
  • Being able to see the actual brush moves on Gebran's paintings made my heart sink. His writing amaze me every time I read it as if it was the first time.
  • Well what can I say, a piece of Heaven, literally! You'll get a real sense of how one of the most famous and important writers and poets lived his life. a must see not only for the Museum but also for the beautiful city called Bsharreh!
