Additional Details:
A view of the Citadel of Raymond de Saint-Gilles in Tripoli, Lebanon. The Citadel is a medieval fortress located on a hill overlooking the city. It was built in the 12th century by Raymond de Saint-Gilles, Count of Toulouse and one of the leaders of the First Crusade. The Citadel has been rebuilt and expanded several times over the centuries, and it now includes a mix of Crusader, Mamluk, and Ottoman architecture. In the foreground is a residential area with a few palm trees.
