- Walking Gemmayze: A Traditional Street You Have to Discover (walk more, live our country)
Rue Gouraud (Arabic: شارع غورو) is a mixed residential and commercial street in Gemmayzeh, a neighborhood in the Rmeil district of Beirut in Lebanon. It is named after French General Henri Gouraud. Gemmayze, and Rue Gouraud specifically, and competes with the trendy village-type neighborhood of Badaro, as one of Beirut's bohemian quarters. the district is full of narrow streets and historic buildings from the French era. The neighborhood is well known today for its trendy bars and pubs, cafes, restaurants and lounges, most of which are directly located on Rue Gouraud.
Rue Gouraud is known especially for its culinary scene that is popular with Beirut's fashionistas. The street runs east of Beirut Central District and the Saifi Village, extending from Avenue Georges Haddad and reaching the Corniche du Fleuve. In 2004, Travel + Leisure magazine called the street "SoHo by the Sea," due to its colorful and chic cafés amid 1950's apartment buildings and hole-in-the-wall shops.
Adjacent to Rue Gouraud are the Saint Nicolas Stairs, also known as Escalier de l'Art, where art festivals are held every year. The stairs lead to Rue Sursock further to the South. The area is also within walking distance from Rue Monnot and the Saifi Village.
Rue Gouraud and the rest of Gemmayzeh were damaged extensively in the 2020 Beirut explosions, which destroyed many buildings.

Thanks very much for the excellent video tour. I hope life in Lebanon improves soon!
Ma ajmalik ya beirut w ya di3anik... thank you for this video
8:12 It would be nice if this little plot by the houses could be turned into a little park with lots of greenery, trees and flowers. It would be very pleasant for such a built up and concrete neighbourhood. It's important for such densely populated cities to have these little green spots.
Would love to see that as well. One of the many reasons I prefer village life over city life.
Im studying architecture online and i have to do a site analysis of gemmayze. Thank you for providing this video and allowing me to feel like I am there even though i am on the other side of the Earth!!!
You don't know how much you are apriciated , thank you for taking me back to my home town 🇱🇧
I wonder what happened to this fabulous district after the explosion,
The blast made the whole street of gemayze look like it went through 30 years of war
one of the favorite Streets of Beirut, Gemmayzé, is very cool.
