Raouché is a residential and commercial neighborhood in Beirut, Lebanon. It is known for its upscale apartment buildings, cliff-side cafés and its wide seaside sidewalk, the Corniche, where strollers and joggers crowd the pavements in the evenings and weekends.
Off the coast of Raouche, there is a natural landmark called the Pigeon Rocks. Located at Beirut's western-most tip, the two huge rock formations, which stand like gigantic sentinels, are a popular destination for locals and visitors alike.
