The Cedars of God

An ancient grove of cedars, the oldest in Lebanon, makes a beautiful site.

Reviewed By halcatra - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

It is one of five Unesco sites in Lebanon. The Cedars have couple of thousands of years - they are really impressive! In the summer season you can walk around the forest. In winter there is far too much snow and you can see them from outside. It is a shame though it does not change the fact they are still impressively beautiful! There are a lot of souvenir shops around. Some shop assistants are very pushy and it's better to avoid them, but there are some calm and friendly ones as well. You can get nice things with a very good price. We bought magnets for 1 dollar each from an elderly ill gentleman - he was super charming!

Hadchit

Reviewed By Lebanon98

The village was full of hospitable people, and the sites were remarkable. One must visit St Elias Monastery, and go hiking in the valley below.

Deir Mar Elisha

Reviewed By 37carinef - Beirut, Lebanon

At the very beginning of the qadisha valley it is one of two monastery accessible by car (the other one is deir st antonios qoshaya) it’s one of the ancient monastery built in the rocks and between the mountains. It’s also special because of the st vierge chaplets that appeared on the rocks. It has sheltered Christian monastic communities for many centuries. And it has welcomed several priests who chosed to escape their lives for prayers amd lived their entire life in it. And very lately “abouna yacoub” who was able to do miracles while still alive. ( you can visit his tomb and the cave where he was living)

Deir Qozhaya

Reviewed By gyanfernando - Exeter, United Kingdom

Set in a deep valley this monastery is more or less carved into the rock face. There is a functional church which is partly a cave and there is also a museum with an old printing press once used for printing Syriac or Aramaic A nice lady by the name of Natalie will greet you in reception. Once the formalities are over you take a lift to the accommodation. (They do have a lift!) The rooms are nice as are the bathrooms. Being January, the rooms were well heated. Downstairs was the restaurant which served very good meals plus you could buy your own wine from the shop. If you are religious you can attend the services in the church. If not, the monks won't bother you. When I got up in the morning and walked out for a smoke, the staff served me a Lebanese coffee! The views are stunning and it is all very quiet! Great place! .

Deir Mar Semaan

Reviewed By dmittleman - Palm Beach Gardens, United States

Walking to this cave monastery is an adventure in itself. You walk down the valley wall and then hug the wall until you get to the cave. The head clearance is very low. It's hard to imagine somone living here but the views are great and you get some insight into the hermits of years past.
