The 60s in Lebanon will always be remembered as the country's "golden era." 

Known as a time of prosperity, economic and industrial growth, the decade is one that our parents and grandparents always reminisce about. 

Photos taken at the time can help explain why, and honestly, some of them will just make you want to go back in time.
