Most of ancient Sidon lies buried beneath the modern city of Saida. The ancient city covered an area of about 40 acres, from the Castle of St. Louis on the south to the harbor on the north. People came from Sidon to hear Jesus’s teaching, and later he travelled through the territory of Sidon (Mark 3:8; 7:31).
