Baalbek Reborn was created through a collaboration of the German Archaeological Institute, the General Directorate of Antiquities of the Lebanese Ministry of Culture, and Flyover Zone. The tour is offered to the people of the world free of charge thanks to the generosity of Bassam Alghanim, who donated the funds in loving memory of his parents, Yusuf and Ilham Alghanim.
On the virtual tour, you can choose to follow a guided tour of Baalbek or follow your curiosity and explore the site map on the virtual tablet. However, as you take your virtual tour, you can always listen to commentary describing what you are seeing. The commentary was prepared by the experts of the German Archaeological Institute, which has sponsored research in Baalbek since 1997. On your tour, you can use the Time Warp feature to see the site as it looks today and also see the ruins spring to life as they appeared in the third century of our era when the ancient Roman sanctuary was in its heyday. Highlights of the tour include the sanctuary of Jupiter, one of the largest temple complexes of the Roman world, and the shrines conventionally called the Temple of Bacchus, the Temple of Venus, and the Temple of the Muses.

I visted Baalbeck in late September 2001. All the western tourists had fled home because of the WTC attacks of 9/11. I was able to see in quietude the splendors of the ancient world but I was dumbfounded by the immensity of what I was experiencing. I had been long traveling the roads throught Turkey, Syria & Lebanon to visit many ancient sites. To me Baalbek was most impressive even though I had little clue as to what I was seeing. This video has helped me so much to reconfigure my memories of the place. From the entry grand stairs up to the first portico set apart from street level, indeed one is elevated to a different mind. I thank whoever made these digital renderings for helping me grasp better where I was. I must go back after 22 years have past with a new insight accumulated by much hunger to understand what I saw then. This video is perhaps the BEST thing I have ever come across to help me better appreciate Baalbek. I Thank You. I can't wait to go back.

I love Baalbek went there last October (2023). it's Just breathtaking the beauty and grandiosity. I ever went to see and give a hug on the " pregnant women stone" Tks for the video

I have a whole raft of videos detailing anomalies in the construction of this temple and even older but equally impressive temples. Check out the Qsnarba Temple, 12 miles S.W. of Baalbek. It's a smaller version of this temple. The Phoenician were here before Greece and Rome. And the Temples around Qsnarba have Nubbed masonry, therefore not Roman.

Helios ☀️ Heliopolis (ancient Egypt) It was principally notable as the cult center of the sun god Atum, Utu, later worshipped by the East Semitic Akkadian-speaking Babylonians as Shamash, was the ancient Mesopotamian sun, came to be identified with Ra and then Horus. The primary temple of the city was known as the Great House (Ancient Egyptian: Pr Ꜥꜣt or Per Aat, *Par ʻĀʼat) or House of Atum (Pr I͗tmw or Per Atum, *Par-ʼAtāma; Hebrew: פתם‎, Pithom). Its priests maintained that Atum or Ra was the first being, rising self-created from the primeval waters. A decline in the importance of Ra's cult during Dynasty V led to the development of the Ennead, a grouping of nine major Egyptian deities that placed the others in subordinate status to Ra-Atum.

wonderful recreations. thanks for posting. just try to make the roofs more correct. They must have far better decorated, and most likely, made of stone. You can see that fact a few dozens of feet away in the temple of Bacchus: stone ceiling, beautifully coffered and decorated. what you show looks like a roof over a village hut than the grand temple of Jupiter at this site

@georges-rhaddad5527 2 года назад

Another good work that attributes the glory of Baalbeck, way older and more important than narrated, to Romans. How can you allow the narration to elude that the "construction and the function" of Baalbeck architecture were based on Romans emperors and gods? How can you allow this reappropriation of culture to be so flagrant?

@here_we_go_again2571 2 года назад

The Greeks were at Baalbeck long before the Romans. Both either added their own gods' temples to the sites of the local deities (or expanded the sites to include their own deities)

@LordTelperion 2 года назад

What I also find interesting is that the Romans carved out several more of the megalithic blocks in their quarry a mile away and then changed their minds and went with the smaller blocks. 700 tons a block is pretty hard to move and set up, thus freaking expensive.

@YesItsMeGuys68 2 года назад

Odd that the commentator did not mention the MOST outstanding element of the Baalbek temple complex ... the the colossal foundation stones forming the acropolis were already there , in ruin when the Romans first found it . It’s MUCH older in antiquity than the temples built atop it

@johncollins211 Год назад

Oh you mean he didnt make the same exact video of baalbek that every single youtuber makes? What a shame. Ive learned more about baalbek here than any video on the foundation stones. In fact the rest of baalbek is even more sensational than just its foundation. Honestly if you look at other sites in lebanon syria jordan israel its pretty common to find huge stones. Theres no mention of baalbek in any records from any neighboring cities or conquering armies until the romans built it. How could the greatest religious site of antiquity go unmentioned by anyone ever until the roman period. I believe the romans hired local craftsmen from lebanon as they were familiar with building such temples and the romans didnt want to be upstaged by other neighboring megalithic sites so they had then go to the very limits of ancient megalithic construction. Theres just no way that temple complex went unmentioned for thousands of years until the romans. A settlement was there but the temple complex came much later by the romans.

Thanks for you´r work ! This is one of the oldest buildings in the world! Built before the flood (note shift from the west - east axis by about 23.5 °!) Could the Romans have moved anywhere near stones of 800 t or more - we would find them in Rome !!? Ancient Sumerian writings tell about the use of the Platform as a launch pad!

@josefmaster1188 2 года назад

yes they could, as hebrews move 3 600 tons blocks for the temple of Jerusalem with the same function, base for a nice retaining wall, or are you suggesting that the temple of Jerusalem was also build by some old lost civilization? hahaha, they move obelisks of more than 400 tons of continent, they move hundreds of columns of granite around the empire, you can see them from the Basilica of Leptis Magna to the Pantheon in Rome, the great empire did many impresive things.

Incrível alguém, em pleno século XXI, acreditar que pedras de 800 ton. foram cortadas e semi-lapidadas por trabalhadores antigos usando utensílios rústicos, tipo martelos de pedra, cordas de cânhamo, cinzeis de ferro e ' ossinhos de galinha '... e mais: Movê-las a distâncias consideráveis e ergue-las a (+ ou - ) 12 metros do Chão.

The doors were likely so large for a practical reason. This part of the world was the centre of the region occupied by the post flood giants descended from Canaan the grandson of Noah. They would have been the living gods of their day. They could conceivably have provided much of the muscle power used in the megalithic construction work.

@TTuoTT 2 года назад

With the clear marble you are feeding the misconseption of roman official buildings and statues beeing clear white, which they in no way were. Your representation gives a completely false impression. The depiction of animal and plant life and social contexts was shown in flamboyant colors to underline the intensity and vibrance of the human experience. I don't know how often this has to be repeated in the scientific community, but by the decade of 2020 you actually should be up to date already. This shows how detached you are from the broader discussion as a guy with the qualification of watching RU-vid videos ia reminding you about the recent shifts in perspective.

Well, maybe, but we have no idea what those paintings might have been. Better to leave it blank, as we know what the base stone color is, then to make-believe up some Romanesque painting and risk being completely wrong.

@norsksuppeforum9132 "With stone hammers and bronze tools. Really? Thats not possible" 1. Romans used iron tools; 2. Argument from ignorance is a fallacy. " Its buildings on an industrial scale with crazy accuracy" - There is nothing crazy there, everything is alligned perfectly with accuracy typical for ancient Rome. "Heavy motorized cranes where used." - And that is just a dumb lie. You don't need "heavy motorized" cranes to lift 100 tons, Romans were capable of doing just that with their own cranes.
