Libya has, not 1 but 3 great sites of Roman antiquity to rival any other. I was lucky enough to see the one at Sabratha which is huge. There are also sites at Leptis Magna and Cyrene. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KeXvVNlOVFw
Sabratha was being lovingly restored by the Italians before Gaddafis coup. And little has been done, if any since then.
If you are into Roman antiquity then Libya also has some great beaches. Once the mess has been cleared up and democracy installed, I am sure Libya will once again be a great holiday destination.
