An amazing experience! Located west of Tripoli, be warned that this short trip will likely take a couple of hours due to the insanely horrible driving you're destined to find here. Don't be scared, just close your eyes and hold on. Explored Sabratha with my husband and his family, who had been there many times (they're from the area). It... More

Despite all that has gone on in Libya this past year, the ruins seems to be untouched and were an incredible sight to see.

The golden stone and the blue sea and sky make this a beautiful place to visit, It was also much less crowded than Leptus Magna.
