Hotels in Benghazi, Libya

Hotels in Benghazi, Libya
Benghazi is Libya's second largest city and has a population of almost one million. Many tourists prefer Benghazi to the Libyan capital, Tripoli. This is because it is one of the greenest cities in the country, with an abundance of parks. There is also a lake and the Mediterranean Sea, with many beaches, making it a premiere destination for water sports enthusiasts. Al-Buduzeera, one of the city's largest parks, also boasts a water park with large slides, making it a favorite among family travelers, as is Al-Fuwayhat, which contains both a zoo and a theme park with electric rides. While Benghazi offers a number of restaurants, note that the star system employed to rate the quality of the establishment is not always on a par with its Western equivalents. Visitors are also advised to bring their own towels.
