Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox Former Subdivision The Vilayet of Beirut (Шаблон:Lang-ota; Шаблон:Lang-ar) was a first-level administrative division (vilayet) of the Ottoman Empire. It was established from the coastal areas of the Syria Vilayet in 1888 as a recognition of the new-found importance of its then-booming capital, Beirut, which had experienced remarkable growth in the previous years — by 1907, Beirut handled 11 percent of the Ottoman Empire's international trade.[1] It stretched from just north of Jaffa to the port city of Latakia.[2] It was bounded by the Syria Vilayet to the east, the Aleppo Vilayet to the north, the autonomous Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem to the south and the Mediterranean Sea to the west.

At the beginning of the 20th century, it reportedly had an area of Шаблон:Convert, while the preliminary results of the first Ottoman census of 1885 (published in 1908) gave the population as 533,500.[3] It was the 4th most heavily populated region of the Ottoman Empire's 36 provinces.[4]
