In 1886, when it was found that the bridge could not handle vehicle traffic, the ruler of Mount Lebanon, Wassa Bacha (1883–1892), built a new bridge parallel to the old one.

Jisr Al-Qadi is well known for its clay pottery workshops, where residents of the town still produce handmade earthenware in the old traditional way.

It did not gain prominence until the railroad linking Beirut to Damascus was built between 1892 and 1895 and passed through it. The new, easy means of transportation attracted the people of Beirut, more and more, to spend their summer months in Aley and enjoy its pleasant climate. Since then, Aley has become one of the most popular summer resorts of Mount Lebanon and the choice vacation spot for many Arab dignitaries.

Most probably, its first inhabitants were tradesmen engaged in the trade of cedar wood, which is still abundant in the area. Bmehray was the first village in the north to become part of the Shelter of Arz Al-Chouf. It has one million square meters of cedar trees, as well as at least three million square meters of pine trees.

Before the war, the main source of income for the village was horticulture, especially apples. Attempts to revitalize this economic activity, however, are being hindered by the lack of water for irrigation. There are no restaurants or hotels at Bmehray, but there are several sites close to houses and in the pine forests that are pleasantly suitable for picnics and camping.

As with Aley, the railroad that was built to link Beirut with Damascus passed through Bhamdoun and turned it into one of the first Lebanese mountain resorts. Every summer since then, the town has continued to attract people of affluence from countries throughout the Middle East region. In and around the town used to be some remains of ancient gravestones and sarcophagi that attested to the town’s long history. In addition to the site of “Nakaha Khan” that was frequently visited by Ottoman and German officers during World War I.

In the middle of the 8th century, during the time of the Abbasid caliphate, the Tannoukhi princes reigned in the area. Among the landmarks belonging to the later feudal age are the Princes’ Road and the remains of the palaces of Emir Ka’adan Al-Tannoukhi, Sheikh Riyad Amineddine, and Al-Sayyed Abdallah Al-Tannoukhi, a prominent Druze during the late 15th century.

The word “Abey,” written as “E’abey” in historical manuscripts originates from Syriac language, meaning “the woods” or “dense tree area.” Abey also has a number of churches built

by European missionaries in the 17th century, among them the Church of Saints Sarkis and Bakhos, Mar Maroun Church and the Evangelical Church.

At that time, the site was no more than the railway station. There was only one house there in 1904, but it rapidly became a town.

Today, Bhamdoun Al-Mhatta is a leading summer resort, with many hotels, hundreds of shops and thousands of residences for summer visitors, in addition to a number of religious centers catering to different religions.

Sites of interest in the village are an eighteenth-century castle, which is the summer center of the Catholic Patriarchate, as well as the Church of Saint John the Beloved Disciple and the Church of the Virgin Mary.

It is pleasant to walk through the village. Old houses line the main street, and several of the buildings are classified as historic monuments. Of special interest are the eighteenthcentury Maronite Monastery of Saint Antoine, the Church of Mar Qiriqos and the old residence of Geagea Abi Farah. On the hillsides of the town are ancient tombs cut into the rock. The village has an abundance of water, whose source is the spring of Nabi’i Al-Safa, which passes through the valley and flows into the village.

A pleasant picnic spot is the verdant area below the village around the hydroelectric station, which is powered by the waters of Nabi’i Al-Safa.

Researchers argue that the village name is of Arabic origin, based on several historical incidents. The village does not have any ancient ruins, other than the Saint Anthony Church which was built more than 600 years ago, but was burned during the Mamluk period. Traces of the fire that destroyed the church are still visible on its stone walls.

The most impressive structure in Ras Al-Metn is the large serail built by the Abi Allama’a emirs. The town has abundant springs and fountains, among them the Ain Al-Marj spring, which is labeled with a large plaque bearing the date 1472 AD. Also of interest are some Phoenician remains, a few cemeteries and the Al-Hiskan Grotto. Today, the town is distinguished as the birthplace of the late well-known twentieth-century Lebanese writer Anis Freiha.

Of interest are a number of grand old houses, indicating an earlier presence of wealth in the town, as well as many traditional Lebanese houses. The only sign of antiquity is a huge Roman stone located on the mountainside leading to Al-Shaghour. There is also a big cave nearby that resembles the caves of Nahr Al-Kalb.

One of Falougha's most prominent features is a nineteenth-century century serail, whose grand door combines oriental and Italian styles. Also to be seen are the ruins of some fortresses and an ancient Byzantine church on the Al-Kneisseh mountain above the town. Falougha is where the Maronite Festival of Al-Saydeh (The Virgin Mary Festival) is held annually from the 13th to the 15th of August, followed by the Festival of Falougha on the 16th and 17th of August. The town also commemorates the unfurling of the first Lebanese Flag on the 23rd of September each year.

Salima was famous during the nineteenth century for its production of silk. The many houses built in the architectural style of the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries are a main feature of the town. Most prominent among them is the serail of the Abi Allama’a emirs, built in 1721. The castle is characterized by its gates and windows framed in black and white stones. The main portal entrance is enclosed in an ornate arabesque molding with two lions flanking the central arch. Acquired in 1882 by the Capuchin Order and transformed into a school, the building was changed and restored in 1895 and 1906, then became a commercial marketplace in the 1930s. Salima is also known for being the hometown of Antoine Bachaalani, distinguished for having become the first Lebanese emigrant to the United States in 1854.

Some researchers argue that the origin of the name is Arabic, meaning “al-hazem,” or “thick and elevated from the ground.”

Others say Hazmieh is of Syriac origin, in which the word is composed of two parts: “haza” meaning quantity and “maya” meaning water. Hence, the town's name would mean “water depth,” which conforms with the abundance of water it receives from the various springs in the village.

At the entrance to Hazmieh as you approach it from Beirut stands a place known as Kabr Al-Wali (“the Emperor's tomb”), which is a cemetery of Ottoman tombs in the Western architectural style. Among them are the tombs of two of Mount Lebanon’s governors at the time: Franco Bacha (1868-1873) and Wasa Bacha (1883-1892). The town overlooks a valley through which the Beirut River flows, where the remains of ancient Roman arcades and pillars still stand. The site is traditionally known as Kanater Zbeideh (Zbeideh's arcades), in reference to its builder, Zbeideh, Zeinab, or Zanoubia, the famous queen of Palmyra.

Among the springs in and around the town are: Al-Safa Spring; Al-Qa’ah Spring, from where water was drawn to Beiteddine Palace during the rule of Emir Bachir; Al-Re’ayan Spring, where a huge pumping station distributes potable water to Aley, Bhamdoun, and other neighboring areas; and Ain Al-Hilf, recorded in history as the site where Emir Bachir held meetings with his adversaries to make peace and become allies.

In the town are the remains of a citadel that was built during Ma’ani rule and later was transformed into a Protestant church. There is also an area called “The Jews’ Cemetery” and nearby a small, completely ruined village known as Kafra.

The A'ammiq-Rechmayya road, linking these two areas, passes through the Rechmayya valley, where the Barouk and Abou Zebleh rivers meet to form the Damour river.

A convent bearing the name of the Angel Mikhael, which dates back to the early 18th century and is used as a spiritual retreat, can be found in the town. The river area of the town features an old grinding mill that dates back hundreds of years, with an old cave that can be found on the river's road.

This form of architecture was common under the reign of the Emirs and is reminiscent of the edifices at Deir Al-Qamar and Beiteddine. A number of houses built in this style are still present in the town, along with the Palace of Ali Pasha Joumblatt, who lived at the time of Prince Fakhreddine Al-Ma'ani II. The origin of the name Ba'adaran is disputed by researchers.

Some trace the name back to the Syriac tongue, to mean “the house of help, aid and relief.” Others say it has its origins in the Phoenician language and means “a rest station,” as Ba'adaran was a Roman Army post in 20 B.C. Another translation of the name is “the immune citadel.”

In addition, the serail that used to belong to Al-Joumblatt family is one of the town's important historical heritage sites.

The palace was built in the 17th century over the ruins of a Roman citadel.

Various palaces and large residences built in the traditional Lebanese architecture style can be found in this old town.

The Joumblatt palace, in its present form, dates back to the 17th century, and is among the most prominent palaces in the area. It is characterized by a combination of Orientalist and Italian artistic styles.It was built on the foundations of buildings that date back to the 17th century, but were destroyed in conflicts between the Joumblatt sheikhs and Bachir Al-Chehabi II in 1825. The palace is distinguished by its colored glass facades, verandas, rails, windows, marble columns and decorated arches. This fusion of Orientalist and Italian elements is representative of much of the 19th century architecture in this area.

Beiteddine is home to the famous palace built by Prince Bachir Al-Chehabi II, who governed Mount Lebanon from 1788 to 1840. The palace's design and structure represent that of 19th century Lebanese architecture. Its construction began in 1812, at which time it was the principality's headquarters, and continued until 1840, when the prince was exiled, first in Malta and then in Istanbul, where he died in 1850.

Principality rule was dissolved in the year 1842 and the palace was converted into a headquarters for Ottoman governors.

In the years 1860-1915, it was used by Mount Lebanon's Ottoman Mutassarif, and after World War I the palace was placed under the authority of the French mandate government.

Restoration work on the palace started in 1926, and by the year 1934, it was designated as a historic building and placed on the list of Lebanese heritage sites. Beiteddine palace went on to become a summer residence for the presidency in 1943, under President Bechara Al-Khoury. Later, the remains of Prince Bachir were transferred from Istanbul to the palace boundaries to be placed beside those of his wife, Lady Chams, in 1947.

Beiteddine is a valuable touristic site and was used during the sixties and seventies for arts and culture festivals. Beiteddine organizers have resumed this tradition, with internationally recognized events taking place in the months of July and August each year.

Ba’aqline 2/2

ø«∏≤©H

Ba’aqline, the first capital of the Ma’an emirs, is situated on seven green hills located in the Chouf. Emir Fakhreddine II was born and raised in Ba’aqline, from where he began to enlarge his emirate by uniting its various districts, in order to get rid of Ottoman rule and establish an independent state. This and subsequent events brought historical and political importance to Ba’aqline as the governing and administrative center of Mount Lebanon.

The town’s name, which is traced back to the Syriac tongue, bears several meanings, among them “house of the smart people,” “the place with many turnings,” and “the thorn’s location in the mountains.” Other researchers argue that the name derives from the tribe of Bani Ijel of the Ma’an emirs.

The name Ba’aqline was found in an ancient script mentioning that the brother of Salah Al-Dine Al-Ayoubi died there in 1209.

Ba’aqline has an abundance of wooded areas and is characterized by the religious background of its ancient sites, among them sarcophagi, cemeteries and shrines. The town is famous for the production of oil, soap and distinctive handicrafts. Of special interest is the atelier of Artisanat AlChouf, which was established in 1962.

A number of figures prominent in Lebanon’s national life – in the political, administrative, legal, medical and other domains – are from Ba’aqline. Today, the town continues to thrive as the economic center of the Chouf area.

The story begins with a group of Christian monks who discovered a monastery in ruins during the early years of Ma'an rule. It is said that they rebuilt the monastery, located at the top of a forest, in the moonlight hours and made their living during the day.

Another explanation attributes the name to a rock-carved drawing of the moon on the southern wall of the Saydet Al-Talleh Church. At the time, the word Qamar referred to the Semitic God of Sin, and it is believed by some that the monastery was built over the temple honoring the god.

During the Ottoman era starting in 1516, the rulers of Mount Lebanon ran their affairs from the administrative centers of Ba'aqline, Beiteddine and Deir Al-Qamar. Prince Fakhreddine Al-Ma'ani II, one of the most prominent Ottoman leaders who extended the frontiers of Mount Lebanon to its present borders, moved the capital from Ba'aqline to Deir Al-Qamar in 1590. He was forced to make the move owing due to a severe water shortage in Ba'aqline, and he exercised his rule from the new capital until his death in 1635. Remnants of his heritage can still be seen in Deir Al-Qamar today.

After the culmination of the Ma'an family's rule at the end of the 17th century, the significance of the area began to diminish gradually, and in less than one century, Beiteddine replaced Deir Al-Qamar as the capital of Mount Lebanon.

Prince Bachir Al-Chehabi II, who designated the transfer, used Beiteddine as his administrative headquarters from 1788 to 1840.

With its distinctive, narrow streets that overlook historic buildings and palaces, Deir Al-Qamar is practically an open-air museum that dates back several centuries. A decree issued in 1945 designated the areas around the Ma'an and Chehab palaces as Lebanese heritage sites, followed by another decree in 1957, which characterized Deir Al-Qamar as a city with a special heritage character.

The repair of historic buildings in Deir Al-Qamar began in the sixties, with urban planning directives in the seventies identifying the historic sites and living areas in the city. On this basis, repair and restoration works took place, leading to the removal of structures that had tarnished the appearance of the old palaces and serails.

In 1995, Deir Al-Qamar was placed on UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites.

An outstanding feature of the town is its vast forest of oak trees, some of which are more than 2,000 years old. Of interest are some ancient Roman and Byzantine remains, such as Ain Al-Tahta and Ard Al-Daya’a, as well as the famous Jeita Spring and Ain Al-Sheikh Bechir Jumblatt. The town also has a 500-year-old Khilweh (a Druze religious meeting place), known as Khilwet Al-Sheikh Al-Sadek.

The most important site in Joun is the house of Lady Hester Stanhope, a member of British aristocracy, who left England in 1810 to seek adventure in the East, settled permanently in Lebanon, and remained there until her death in 1839. The house today lies in ruins, its gardens full of wild flowers and weeds; and the stone tomb of Lady Stanhope, which was vandalized during the Lebanese war, no longer bears the inscriptions that had marked her grave.

The Church of Our Lady of Elij was constructed with small stones during the Middle Ages. It bears an inscription in Syriac, dated 1276, indicating that the church had previously been a Ya’acoubi church. Another site of interest in the village is the ancient Church of Saint Moura.

Others state that the name stands for strength and firmness, and hence the name would mean “the strong and firm village.” The town’s ancient remains, which date back to the Phoenician, Roman, Byzantine and Crusader eras, include some huge pillars of temples that were transformed into churches, among them the Church of Saint Georges, the Church of Saint John and Saint Theodore and the Church of Saint Elysée. Other religious sites around the village are the remains of Mar Doumit, an old structure that may have served as a monastery during the Crusader era; the Church of Saint Michael to the north; a rock engraved with an image of the sun and its rays to the east; and to the south a shrine to Our Lady of Douka built over a Phoenician ruin.

Of archaeological interest in the town are some sarcophagi and writings that resemble hieroglyphics, in addition to the ruins of a Phoenician temple and some mosaics.

The cedars forest of Jaj, which was one of the oldest and largest of forests in Mount Lebanon during ancient times, is found here, and in the middle of the town stands the Church of Transfiguration. Antiquities of interest in the center of town include the stone remains of a temple that was consecrated to the worship of Astarte, as well as a Phoenician column discovered in 1955 in the town’s church. Jaj also has some old sarcophagi cut into the rocks, the remains of Roman canals and wells dispersed throughout the town, and rocks carrying inscriptions that date back to the time of the Roman Emperor Adrianos.

Other sites of historical interest in and around Jaj include the remains of the tower of Al- Moukaddamine and the Monastery of Mar Doumit. There is also a Crusader tower and the arcade of a fountain that was earlier known as the Crusaders Fountain, and later as the Muslim Fountain. Other places to see are the Maronite Archbishopric of Jaj, the Church of Saint John and the ancient church of Mar Doumit.

Within the town and its environs lie the ruins that date back to the Middle Ages and earlier. Of special interest in the town is the Al-Roueiss Cave, one of the largest of Lebanese caves, where a natural bridge passes over the winter river that originally formed it and continues to link the areas of Al-A’aqoura with nearby Al-Majdel.

The main archeological site of Al-A’aqoura is a section of the ancient Roman road that was cut into the rocks and once linked Jbeil with Ba’albeck by passing through Al-Yammouneh. At the top of the slope overlooking the town is a natural cave that is 500 m deep, where a variety of ruins were found. It is called the Cave of St. John, because of the small shrine to the saint that has been standing at its entrance for centuries. Also to be visited is the Church of Saint Peter, which had originally been a natural cave and on whose walls can still be seen traces of old religious paintings and the names of some saints.

The Cave is situated on a mountain cliff 200 meters high, from which the waters fall in a dramatic splash into the river below.

Across from the Cave are the remains of temples and shrines dedicated to the fated lovers, most prominent among them the Roman Temple of Venus. According to the legend, Adonis (who was playing the dual role of the son of the goddess and her lover) was killed at this site during his battle with a wild boar.

Astarte tried to save him, but she was too late; so, each spring since then the river's waters are said to turn dark red, stained with the blood of Adonis.

The Haqel area, which incorporates the village of Karakef, is famous for its wide variety of fish fossils that are many millions of years old. One of the earliest vestiges of human presence in Haqel is Chmeiss Al Kala'a , where the remains of an old fortress are found. Other interesting sights are a sarcophagus near the Church of Mar Saba and the ancient Church of the Virgin Mary with its Crusader inscriptions, in addition to an ancient olive press and a hydraulic mill standing near the river.

This church is considered by some researchers as one of the oldest churches in Lebanon, dating back to the early Christian era. It is believed that its actual altar is the same one that was used by pagan worshipers.

In the church are found Greek inscriptions and paintings of Christ, the apostles, Saint Stephan, Saint Georges, John Maroun and Saint Theodore.

Among the evidence of the Phoenician presence in Al-Machnaqa are the remains of columns and a great wall, with large tombs cut into the rocks surrounding it that bear inscriptions related to funeral rituals. About five kilometers away to the east of Al-Mashnaqa is the road that leads to Wadi Al-Janna (The Valley of Heaven), a lovely green spot that lies at the bottom of the valley.

Other paintings portray the four evangelists and a number of church fathers. Also to be visited is the Church of Mar Osapios, which was built over the ruins of a Roman temple and on whose door can be seen some Greek inscriptions.

There are some sarcophagi and rock inscriptions in the area that date back to the time of the Roman Emperor Adrianos. Adjacent to the town is a huge pit of more than 250 meters in depth, known as Balouh Ba’atara, which is uniquely spanned by three naturally formed bridges.

Byblos (Jbeil) 3/4

π«ÑL

Ironically, the city's early inhabitants would not have recognized the words “Byblos” and “ Phoenicia .” For several thousand years it was called “Gubla” and later “Gebal,” while the term “Cana’an” was applied to the coast in general.

It was the Greeks, some time after 1200 B.C., who gave us the name “Phoenicia,” referring to the coastal area. They called the city “Byblos” (papyrus in Greek), because this commercial center was important in the papyrus trade.

About 7,000 years ago a small Neolithic fishing community settled along the shore and several of their monocellular huts with crushed limestone floors can be seen on the site. Many tools and weapons of this Stone Age period have been found as well.

The Chalcolithic Period (4,000-3,000 B.C.) saw a continuation of the same way of life, but brought with it new burial customs where the deceased were laid in large pottery jars and buried with their earthly possessions.

Before this period, those who lived in the mountains led a primitive life in caves and mountain hideouts. They used firestone, animal bones and horns to make weapons and household items. In the suburbs of Byblos, polished firestones were found, in addition to a human molar tooth that dates back 70,000 years and a rhinoceros molar next to Ibrahim River (Adonis).

By the beginning of the Early Bronze Age (about 3,000 B.C.), Canaanite Byblos had developed into the most important timber-shipping center on the eastern Mediterranean and ties with Egypt were very close. The pharaohs of the Old Kingdom needed cedar trees and other wood for shipbuilding, tomb construction and funerary rituals. In return, Egypt sent gold, alabaster, papyrus rope and linen. Thus began a period of prosperity, wealth and intense activity. Several centuries later, Amorite tribes from the desert overran the coastal region and set fire to Byblos . But once the Amorites had settled in, the city was rebuilt and Egypt again began to send costly gifts to the city . Treasures from the royal tombs of Byblos show the great wealth that flooded the city.

Around 1,200 B.C. a wave of the so called “Sea Peoples” from the north spread to the eastern Mediterranean, and some settled on the southern coast of the Canaan. These seafarers probably contributed their skills to the maritime society we know today as Phoenicia.

During the same period, the scribes of Byblos developed an alphabetic phonetic script, the precursor of our modern alphabet. By 800 B.C., it had traveled to Greece, changing forever the way man communicated. The earliest form of Phoenician alphabet found to date is the inscription on the sarcophagus of King Ahiram of Byblos .

Throughout the first millennium B.C., Byblos continued to benefit from the trade in spite of Assyrian and Babylonian encroachments. Then came the Persians, who held sway from 550-330 B.C. The remains of a fortress outside the Early Bronze Age city walls from this period show that Byblos was a strategic part of the Persian defense system in the eastern Mediterranean. After conquest by Alexander the Great, Byblos was rapidly Hellenized, and Greek became the language of the local intelligentsia. During the Hellenistic Period (330-64 B.C.), residents of Byblos adopted Greek customs and culture.

Although its beginnings are lost in time, modern scholars say the site of Byblos dates back at least 7,000 years.

The town derived its name from the temple of Adonis, and his tomb, known as Qa'abel Temple. Al-Ghineh has several Roman and Byzantine vestiges.

At the bottom of the town are the ruins of a Roman temple transformed into a church during the Byzantine era. The church resembles a basilica, with its floor covered by decorations.

During the same Roman period, several cemeteries were carved though rocks facing this site, with funeral related steles, the most important of which is a stele representing a hunter fighting an animal.

Jeita is famous for its grotto, which is considered among the most important natural tourism features of Lebanon. Jeita Grotto is characterized by two layers, an upper dry part and a lower part where an internal river originating from the Nahr Al-Kalb (Dog River) flows. Over millions of years, limewater has shaped wonderful rock formations inside the cave.

Jeita Grotto was discovered in 1836 by an American preacher, William Thompson. Several American, English, and French discovery trips were made afterwards to the grotto between 1892 and 1940, and the length of the discovered area reached 1,750m. Starting the 1940s, several Lebanese explorers went further to discover new areas in the grotto, until the explored length of the cave reached 7km.

The upper grotto remained undiscovered until 1958, when a group of Lebanese explorers penetrated it through the lower part and explored a depth of 2,130m inside. The length of both grottos today exceeds 9km.

After being closed during the Lebanese war, the Ministry of Tourism rehabilitated and equipped the grotto and opened it to the public during the summer of 1996. Taking pictures is totally prohibited inside both caves.

Jeita is also home to another cave close to the river, which includes vestiges dating back thousands of years. These archeological remains are evidence that prehistoric men used to produce swords in that cave.

Ghazir 2/2

ôjõZ

The name of Ghazir is derived from the Syriac language, meaning the separated area. This name is consistent with the geographical shape of the town, which appears to be separated from its neighboring regions by valleys and hills.

Ghazir is famous for being the hometown of Emir Bechir Al-Chahabi II, who was born there in 1767. The town is also characterized by its traditional Lebanese houses. Among the sites of Ghazir, most of which are listed among Lebanon’s historical sites, are more than 10 churches and monasteries, some of which date back to the 17th and 18th centuries.

Mar Maroun Monastery, mainly Italian in style, constitutes a sample of 19th century Western architecture. This monastery was built over the ruins of another, older, Medieval monastery and once hosted a Maronite clerical school.

Among the famous Ghazir residences is the traditional Lebanese house where the previous President Fouad Chehab was born. Another famous residence is the Palace of Ghazir, established in 1904 during the rule of Mozfer Baca, the Moutasarref of Mount Lebanon.

Next to Ghazir, in Beit Khachbo, stands a monastery dating back to the end of the 18th century, characterized by a gate decorated with rocky designs. The church includes a sarcophagus from the Roman era with Latin scripts engraved on it.

The town also includes an old Roman bridge, in addition to a heritage cave known as the Cave of the Lion, and previously known as the Cave of Adam."

To the North of Jounieh and at the bottom of Ghazir is the town of Ma'ameltein, whose name is derived from the Ma'ameltein River, cut by a Roman bridge that used to separate two administrative districts. Ma'ameltein is home to several touristic institutions, including beaches, restaurants and coffee shops, hotels, and tourism and commercial centers. The Casino du Liban, overlooking the town, is considered to be the most famous site of Ma'ameltein.

Jounieh includes four neighboring towns: Sarba, Ghadir, Haret Sakher, and Sahel Alma. Due to the destruction of Central Beirut during the Lebanese war, Jounieh was transformed into a large, dynamic city, full of newly established trade centers, buildings, hospitals, hotels, restaurants, and night clubs.

To the north of Jounieh is the town of Ma'ameltein, whose name indicates that it was established on the borders of the Ma’ameltein River, cut by a Roman bridge that used to separate two administrative districts. The Casino du Liban, overlooking the town, is considered as the most famous site of the area. To the south of Jounieh is the town of Kaslik, which was transformed during the Lebanese war into a meeting place for high society, with luxurious resorts, sports clubs, night clubs, art exhibitions, and trade shops. Among the most important activities in town is the car race organized by the ATCL (Automobile et Touring Club du Liban), which attracts many local, Arab, and foreign competitors. Close to the touristic port of Kaslik is a place called Al-Battieh, which includes a Roman tomb carved into rocks, later transformed during the Middle Ages into a sanctuary for Saint Georges.

In the town of Sarba, above the rocky elevation overlooking Jouneih, stands Al-Moukhaless Monastery, affiliated with the Catholic monastic order of Aleppo. The monastery was built in 1883 over the ruins of a control tower from the Mamluke era, which was established on the vestiges of a great Roman temple. The town and its neighboring areas also include a number of caves, including the Cave of Haret Sakher, over which stands an old monastery, and “the Cave of the Lion in Ma'ameltein, previously known as the Cave of Adam."

The town's name is derived from the Syriac language, meaning the purchased place” or “the purchased village. The Arabic name was later modified, and the town has been known since then as Kfardebian. The town enjoys beautiful natural resources. The skiing station of Ouyoun Al-Siman offers modern winter chalets, hotels, and coffee shops. Ouyoun Al-Siman is considered among the best equipped skiing stations in Lebanon. It includes 13 lifts that allow skiers to elevate to more than 2,460 meters above sea level, before skiing on its beautiful slopes. Between the skiing center and the town is located a natural bridge under which flows the famous Al-Laban spring. The town is also home to the deserted Monastery of Mar Youssef (Saint Joseph). Kfardebian includes the area of Faqra, which was one of the largest and most important religious centers in Lebanon in ancient times.

The ruins at Faqra overlook a magnificent scenery of naturally carved rocks.

The Temple of Faqra was established during the Roman era. Built in the Corinthian style, it was dedicated to the worship of “the Greatest God.” Next to this temple once stood a smaller temple that was dedicated to the worship of one of the local goddesses, but this temple was later transformed into a church during the Byzantine era. Remains of what used to be a huge bridge overlook the site. Faqra also includes a natural rock bridge carved by the flow of water over millions of years. In recent years, several cultural and heritage festivals have been initiated at the vestiges of the Faqra citadel.

Among the town's most important features is the Old Souk of Zouk, which has been rehabilitated and renovated in 1995. The souq has been transformed into a pedestrian area surrounded by arcaded shops. Some of the shops were transformed into restaurants and coffee shops, while others kept their traditional ateliers which host an annual souq (market) for traditional heritage products.

In addition, the Mural of Lebanese Creators was established in the old souq, and includes the figures of 15 Lebanese personalities sculpted in stone.

Among Zouk Mikhael’s most famous artisanal products are its textiles woven on traditional looms, as well as its marzipan sweets made of almond and sugar dough. The town is also home to a number of old monasteries and traditional heritage houses.

UNESCO chose the city of Zouk Mikhael from the Arab region as a City for Peace in 1999, honoring the city's efforts to fight deprivation, poverty, and security instability.

Then in the sixteenth century, owing to its stability and development, a variety of other people began to move into the Bekfaya region.

The town is known for its large churches, among them the impressive Church of Mar Abda, built in 1587. Other important structures include castles that date back two hundred years to the early days of the Chehab and Abi Allama’a families. The town is also noted for its numerous springs, especially the Al-Na'as spring, long famed for its healing powers. Its many traditional springside cafes and restaurants, situated in an unusually lovely mountain setting, have long made Bekfaya an appealing summer resort.

The town’s name comes from the Syriac – Aramaic word “sheken,” meaning house or residence. Baskinta has been inhabited ever since Phoenician and Roman times, and remnants of that ancient presence are still found today. The Greeks, who also lived in the town for a long period, built large castles out of enormous blocks of stone, with pillars and underground passages that can still be seen. Among the many artifacts that have been found in and around Baskinta are gold coins and jewels that belonged to Queen Helena, dating to the Byzantium age. At nearby Bakish, the remains of a temple celebrating Bacchus, the god of mirth and wine, can be visited.

Preserving the traditional heritage of a Lebanese village, Baskinta is at the same time a summer resort, known for its superb scenic beauty and the delectable fruits of its vineyards and orchards. In winter, when the town becomes a ski resort, its hotels and chalets are well prepared to receive its many visitors.

However, Al-Mtein’s history is not clearly recorded until about the sixteenth century, when the Abi Allama’a feudal lords and their serfs inhabited Mount Lebanon and the town served as their headquarters. Three of the many grand castles built by the Abi Allama’a emirs during their “golden age” still stand in the town’s main square. Other sights of interest in Al-Mtein include a Roman tower known as Borj Al-Mssaikeh, as well as several silk mills and grape presses that are centuries old, but have fallen into complete disrepair. Al-Mtein is blessed with fertile vineyards and fruit orchards. The apples and cherries are especially delicious.

This attractive town, with its traditional red-roofed houses and pine forests, is the home of seven monasteries and churches (the oldest dating to the twelfth century). Most noted of all is the Monastery of Saint John the Baptist, where the first printing press in the Middle East was founded by Deacon Abdullah Al-Zakher, who designed and built the original press between 1726 and 1733. Visit the fivc-room museum to see the old presses and some 450 printing tools and other equipment. Also view the monastery’s collection of magnificent icons.

Beit Chabeb has a good number of traditional houses and churches, the oldest of which is the Saydet Al-Ghabeh Church (Our Lady of the Forest), dating back to 1761. Throughout the centuries until today, the town has retained its traditional skills in the crafts of pottery and bell-making, and it is still known for the large earthenware vats that are used to preserve olive oil or araq. The Beit Chabeb bell-makers also continue to produce many of the bells for Lebanon's churches, as well as for churches outside the country.

It lies above a thick mountain range that extends from Mahrouka and Al-Khraibeh to Tallet Sandeh, and rises gradually to the north of Mount Sannine.

Historians and researchers believe the word “Bakish” is derived from Bacchus, the Roman god of wine. Many temples dedicated to Bacchus have been found in the region, as well as objects such as a precious ring with an engraving of Bacchus squeezing grapes into a glass.

The village of Al-Za’arour, which is located in the Metn region, can be reached from the Dhour Al-Choueir – Al-Mrouj route.

Scholars have debated the precise origin of the town’s name, with some attributing it to the tree known as za’arour in Arabic, characterized by its small red fruit, and others arguing the word comes from za’ar or zaghar, meaning “small,” indicating that Al-Za’arour is a very small village.

Al-Za’arour is home to several buildings and establishments, but is well known as part of the ski resort district. The village buzzes with numerous restaurants and parks which have been built to meet tourist demand. The area also attracts natureseekers and visitors looking for a pleasant climate.

Residents of Dhour Al-Choueir were renowned for their construction work and developed a particular style of architecture known as Choueirian. Their major architectural achievements include the Beiteddine Palace, the Maronite Patriarchal Palace in Diman and Serail Al-Cham, among others.

At various times throughout history, Dhour Al-Choueir was settled by the Syriacs, the Romans and the Greeks, and their presence can be traced in the engraved rocks, columns and sarcophagi that are still found in the area.

The town’s name derives from the Syriac word meaning “eye of the mountain.” The Marada, a once powerful people who settled in the Lebanese mountains during Byzantine times, lived in Aintoura until the fourteenth century, after which they migrated north to escape Mamluke oppression. Many traces of Maradan life in the area have been found, including cemeteries, crosses, censers, basins, goblets and large barrels, as well as the ruins of a church and the remains of a Roman temple built in the second century AD. Aintoura is noted for its abundance of springs and huge rocks that look like carved statues.

In the seventh century AD, Majdal Tarchich was inhabited by the Maradans, but today’s settlers trace their roots back to a Shiia community that allied itself with the people of Keserwan against the Mamluks.

Remnants of crosses, churches, and caves that were once inhabited (the Al-Fawwar and Al-Qattine caves), as well as the town's mosque, can be traced back to those times.

Some trace it back to Aramaic or Syriac, meaning “the house of worship”; others argue that it has no Arabic, Greek or Roman origin.

Still other researchers say that the word “ba’abdat” is of Arabic origin, meaning “the father of worshipers.” They make reference to a man who settled in the village a long time ago and had five daughters, and because they vowed themselves to God, he built them a small place of worship and named it Mar Mema. Ba’abdat is situated on a southern slope of the upper region and its hillside terraces are cultivated with mulberry, figs and grapes that are surrounded by groves of pine and oak trees. At the bottom of the slope is a small plain, where the ruins of an ancient Aramaic temple are still visible.

They include a Phoenician temple, as well as a Roman temple that was originally comparable in greatness to the temples of Ba’albeck. The main religious site to be visited in Beit Mery is the Monastery of Saint John the Baptist, which was built above the ruins of a Roman temple and came to be known as the Monastery of the Castle (Deir Al-Qala'a). An inscription above its main door, dated 1768, indicates that the monastery complex once included an old church that had been built in 1750.

Beit Mery is one of Lebanon’s main summer resorts, and is also known for its international cultural festivals, which are held each winter at the Al-Bustan Hotel

Thousands of years ago, Broummana was a mountain place of worship for the seafaring Phoenicians.

Sarcophagi and other carved rocks dating from that time can still be found in the area of nearby A’aranta. The fact that most of the several old churches in the town were built over the ruins of ancient temples and castles attests to the significance of Broummana as a historical religious site. One of Lebanon’s most popular summer resorts, the thriving town has a number of fine restaurants and hotels and offers a lively nightlife, especially during the summer months.

In later years, migrant families originating from Jbeil, AlChbaniyyeh and Bekfaya settled in the area, where they were employed to cultivate the monastery’s lands. Gradually, the community grew into a village and was named Mar Moussa.

With government financial assistance in the 1950s, the resident farmers succeeded in obtaining ownership of the land and began expanding the village. Since then, many villas and houses have been built in the surrounding area, which is full of pine trees and serves as a welcome refuge from bustling city life. The village’s most prominent landmarks are its monastery and a windmill.

The history of Antelias is believed to date back over one million years, while evidence of the first human life in this area dates back over 50,000 years.

Over time, many civilizations have passed through or settled in the region. The Phoenicians used Antelias as a place of worship for their deities Anat and Alian, where they performed rituals to venerate the forces of nature represented by the legendary conflict between Anat and Alian on one hand, and Mot on the other hand. After conquering the eastern Mediterranean, the Greeks used Antelias as a place for sun worship, and they built three temples in accordance with the sun's path from sunrise to sunset: - Barr Helios Temple (Bar Elias): For sunrise (Barr means rise and Helios means sun ) - Cap Helios Temple (Qob Elias): For noon (Cap means sunrise peak and Helios means sun ) - Ante Helios Temple (Antelias): For sunset (Ante means adjacent or the spot next to the sun or the place abundant in water where the sun reflects its image and Helios means sun ) The Romans built in the plain of Antelias, extended geographically between Nahr Al-Kalb (Al-Kalb River) and Nahr Beirut (Beirut River). The Roman Antonian Road was located on the boarders of what is known today as Ramliyat Antelias ( the Sabulous Land of Antelias ).

The Maradas rebuilt the Stony Fortress (670-700 A.D.), which was named Fortress of Sadd Al-Nouhas by the Byzantine Emperor, in honor of the Maradas defense of Byzantium. Few remains of the fortress can be seen to this day.
