EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Tripoli, Lebanon's unique double-decker horse tram. Dating back to circa 1908, this open-air transportation method offers a glimpse into the city's rich history. The double-decker design allowed more passengers to ride in comfort and style, making it a popular mode of transportation during the Ottoman era. In the background, the iconic Clock Tower of Tripoli, a gift to the city from the Ottomans, stands tall. Located in Al-Tell square, this architectural masterpiece is a symbol of Tripoli's heritage and cultural significance. The clock tower's intricate design and ornate details reflect the Ottoman influence on the city's architecture. Tripoli, the second-largest city in Lebanon, has a rich history that spans over 4,000 years. This print captures a moment in time when horse-drawn transportation was the norm, and the clock tower was a beacon of the city's vibrant past. The image invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of Tripoli during the early 20th century, making it a must-have for history buffs and anyone with a fascination for bygone eras.
