  • 15+ Perfect Hiking Spots in Lebanon for When You Need to Get Away Maria Zakhour· Guides
    15+ Perfect Hiking Spots In Lebanon For When You Need To Get Away Maria Zakhour· Guides Carlos Bou Nafeh With everything that is going on in Lebanon as well as around the world, people feel the need to hide from reality; and what better place is there to hide than in the heart of nature? We’ve brought you 18 perfect hiking spots in Lebanon, so you can embrace nature and appreciate the good it has to offer: #1 Al-Shouf Cedar Reserve Open Souq This is the largest nature reserve in Lebanon. It stretches from Dahr El- Baidar in the north to Niha Mountain in the South and has an area of 550 km2, which is nearly 5.3% of the Lebanese territory. The reserve’s most famous attractions are the cedar forests of Maasser El-Shouf, Barouk, and Ain Zhalta – Bmohary. Claude Abou Chacra In this reserve in the Chouf district, you will find not only 2,000-year-old trees but if you’re lucky enough you’ll get to see some of its 32 species of wild mammals, its 200 species of birds, and its 500 species of plants. People come to Al-Shouf Cedar Nature Reserve to hike, mountain bike, or snowshoe, but also to get a glimpse at its rich habitat. #2 Balou’ Bala’a This Big Wild World Balou Balaa, or the Baatara Gorge Waterfall, is near Balaa in Tannourine, Lebanon. This waterfall drops 255 meters into the Balaa pothole. The cave, known as The Cave Of The Three Bridges is of Jurassic limestone.

I write this introduction after finishing this thesis, in order to explain how I have written the rest. After coming back from Beirut on the 12th of June, I did not have a clear plan on how to structure the thesis, but I had some ideas. Some things I felt that were important to me and comments that I had on the situation. So I started writing about the civil war. One month later, when in my thesis I had arrived at the 1982 invasion of Israel, the present conflict started. In a strange way this paralyzed me and the first days I spent watching television, seeing the same comments and images over and over again on different channels and talking to people in Lebanon on msn messenger or on the phone. My whole introduction and starting point seemed irrelevant now and I was not sure how to proceed. I had chosen the text ‘Le Liban’ by Amin Maalouf, which Jad Salhab had given me, to show the relevance of the civil war in the world today.

  • Baalbek and Jounieh
    BAALBEK Baalbek, the “City of the Sun” of antiquity is without any doubt the most extraordinary archaeological site in Lebanon, known all over the world for its monumental complex of Roman temples. Founded by the Phoenicians, it was later conquered by the Macedonians who called it Heliopolis (always the City of the Sun) for assimilation between the god Sun and the Phoenician divinity Baal. Then it became a Roman colony under Augusto, preserving the new name. Today you can see three main buildings: the temple of Jupiter, the temple of Bacchus and the so-called circular temple of Venus. A fourth monument, the Temple of Mercury is located on the hill of Sheikh Abdallah. In July and August the temples become the scenery of the Baalbeck Festival, an international music, theater and dance show.

Collection Title: Genevieve Maxwell Collection, 1950-2000. Collection Dates: 1950-2000. Physical Description: 1000 photos. Physical Description: 3 linear feet, 9 archival boxes. Abstract: This is a collection of photos, letters, articles, invitation cards, advertisements, and catalogs that belonged to journalist and social scene columnist Genevieve Maxwell, as she undertook the many assignments, she did, and as she lived her busy social life in Beirut mostly during it heydays. She collected more than 1000 photographs that tell about Lebanon between the 1950s and 1980s after the outbreak of the civil war. The archival materials from the 1950s to 2000 are also resourceful. The collection conveys the social, political, diplomatic life in Lebanon and a few neighboring countries, mainly before the civil war that started in 1975. The various items of the collection are of interest to researchers looking to unravel the life of an adamant and active woman journalist in the Middle East towards the middle of the 20th century. They are also a key to learn about a phase in the history of Lebanon when the country was thriving at all levels (social, economic, political, etc.); when Lebanon was called the Switzerland of the East.
