Parking may be available nearby, but be mindful of local parking regulations.

  From Baabda, head to the nearest bus stop where you can find local buses heading towards Beirut. Board a bus that goes to the Beirut city center (look for routes that say 'Downtown' or 'Beirut' on them). The fare for this trip is usually around 1,500 to 2,000 LBP. Once you arrive at the city center, disembark at the main square and ask for directions to VGW3+2WM, Beirut. It is a short walk from the main square to the Berytus Cardo & Decumanus Maximus.

• Taxi or Ride-Hailing Service

  If you prefer a more direct route, you can take a taxi or use a ride-hailing service like Careem or Uber. Simply provide the driver with the address VGW3+2WM, Beirut. The ride should take around 15-20 minutes depending on traffic, and the fare is typically between 10,000 to 15,000 LBP.
