Tyre (Arabic: Sour صُوْر) is the fourth-largest city in Lebanon. It is particularly noteworthy for its stunning and clean beaches (unlike those at Sidon) as well as some of the finest examples of Roman architecture in the world. Situated on a peninsula, it is the largest city in the south of the country after Sidon.

Tyre is the base of the WikiPedia:UNIFIL headquarters which operates in the south of the country, and monitors the border region between Lebanon, Israel and the WikiPedia:Occupied Territories and Syria. Don't be surprised to see UN troops out and about in this town, which is generally very safe for visitors.
