I was there in 2014 for a business trip.
Go to Pigeon Rock and take some selfies. There are a few really nice restaurants and cafes in that area also. That's about the only touristy thing I had time to do.
I recommend you get an escort that knows the areas. The Bekka valley is a very picturesque, rural area. East of that is the Qalamoun mountains and the Syrian border.
The rest of the time I was involved in meetings and business-related sightseeing. I have some nice aerial photos of a Hezbollah "secret airfield". That may not be the kind of things you're looking to do, though. lol
