Tourism in Lebanon - Tourist sites and attractions in Lebanon

In north Lebanon, the “Holy Valley” spreads from Bcharreh to the coast. Classified under UNESCO's world heritage, its countless caves, chapels and monasteries as well as its luxuriant vegetation transformed it into the most famous natural site of Lebanon.

Holy Qadisha Valley, North Lebanon

For a long time its monasteries and caves have a peaceful shelter and refuge for monks, hermits and Christians from different nearby regions. Saint Eliseus convent, Qannubine monastery and many others are still in perfect condition since most of them have been restored. They can be presently visited and offer, besides the magnificence of the place, a fantastic panorama of the valley.

On the summit of Qadisha, lays the village of Bcharreh with its charming traditional architecture. There was born Gibran Khalil Gibran, the most famous Lebanese writer, poet and painter of the 20th century.
