Cross into the Bekaa Valley and stand beside the Stone of the Pregnant Woman — a 1,000-tonne limestone block that was never finished and never moved — before entering Baalbek, where the Temple of Bacchus is larger than the Parthenon and the Temple of Jupiter sits on stones heavier than anything a modern crane can lift. End the day at Ksara — Lebanon's oldest winery — walking through Roman cave cellars before tasting wines that have been made here since 1857. A day that earns its tired feet.
