Jabal Moussa Biosphere Reserve

Reviewed By AM42020

Jabal Moussa is an incredible place: a diverse biosphere reserve, a beautiful expanse in which one can clear one's mind and contemplate existence, an amazing outdoor gym, an al fresco museum of Lebanese history. And all of this a short drive from Beirut (even if it feels as if you have traveled light years away). It has really saved our family from going insane in these corona times, but would have been a welcome weekend retreat in any year. The staff is also incredible, picking you up if you want to hike from one entrance to another, offering helpful advice, and even video calls for the few times we got confused mid-trails (it is extremely well-signed and difficult to get lost!). There are trails for all levels, from the novice to the more advanced. We did all 15 of them and each one offered new surprises. I can't recommend this place enough.

Atelier Assaf

Atelier Assaf is an eco-tourism project that sits quietly in the fertile valley of Al Warhaniyeh, in Shouf Caza, and embodies the harmony between nature, culture and art. Surrounded by 10,000 sq meters of virgin nature, the project was initiated by three artists (the Assaf brothers) and is devoted to showcasing a private collection of cultural and environmental art. The Atelier contains a sculpture park and museum, a rural environmental house, and a small botanical garden. We offer guided tours, that can be customised to our guests’ visits, and that aim to: - Introduce the art and process of sculpting – starting with forming in Clay, casting in Resin and Bronze, then Stone carving; - Acquaint with our rural and environmental house and the process of building it using stone and other natural materials; - Familiarise with wild plants and trees - an initiative that is in collaboration with the AUB Nature Conservation Center. Atelier Assaf is now closed and will re-open April 2018.

Very interesting place to visit both for adults and children. Assaf brothers are great hosts. They made an amazing excursion about the local plants (we have even tasted all possible seasonal fruits and nuts (: ), eco-friendly house construction and farming and especially sculpturing. We have seen sculptures of the famous Lebanese of the 20th century in a museum. All of them are made by Assaf brothers in limestone, bronze or resin. At the end we had a coffee break on a chill terrace under the trees. We highly recommend this place for Lebanese and foreign visitors.

Saint Charbel Statue

Reviewed By monal278 - Sydney, Australia

A father promised St Charbel to build a statue for him if he cures his son and when the miracle happened the father fulfilled his promise and placed the statue on the highest point of Faraiya. So besides the beautiful hills, the amazing views from the top, the fresh clean crisp air, the place has a very spiritual feel with peace and calm taking over your feelings regardless of your religion and believes. Road is a bit windy at the end but local drivers seem to be OK with it and know how to maneuver around the bends.

Jeita Grotto

Magnificent underground caverns can be explored by boat and on foot.

Reviewed By CKAbbott - Dubai, United Arab Emirates

We were complete surprised by the wonder and magic of this place, it is a spectacular natural wonder and I would highly recommend a visit. The entry price os USD 12 is more than worth it for a walk through the upper level and a mystical boat ride through the lower level. More people should be taking about this stunning natural wonder.
