The Roman Ruins at Baalbek, Lebanon [Amazing Places 4K]

Baalbek was a Phoenician city, probably named after the Phoenician god Baal, in Greek and Roman times it was also known as Heliopolis. Baalbec reached its height during Roman times, when between the 1st and 3rd centuries colossal temples dedicated to Jupiter, Bacchus, and other deities were built on site. It is still a mystery how the largest stone blocks known from antiquity, weighing more than thousand tons, were moved to the temple locations. Baalbec is listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List as one of the finest examples of Imperial Roman architecture at its apogee. Recorded April 2022 in 4K Ultra HD with Sony AX700 and DJI Pocket 2.
