Description:

 

 

 

With the collaboration of the Club of Beit El Dine we are pleased to invite you to discover a new Lebanese village

You will be witnessing a different splendid nature overlooking the beautiful Kfarnabrakh and Beit el Dine.

Beit ed-Dine is a small Lebanese town in the Chouf District, approx. 50 km southeast of Beirut and near the town of Deir el-Qamar from which it is separated by a steep valley. The town is famous for its magnificent Beiteddine Palace which hosts the Beiteddine Festival every summer.
Emir Bashir Chehab II who was later appointed to rule Mount Lebanon, started building the palace in 1788 It took about 30 years to complete.


The best craftsmen from Damascus and Aleppo as well as Italian architects were invited and given much freedom, so its style is a cross between traditional Arab and Italian baroque.
After 1840, when Bashir was sent into exile the palace was used by the Ottomans as a government building, during the French Mandate its role was preserved and it served as a local administrative office. In 1934, it was declared a national monument. In 1943, Bechara El Khoury, the first Lebanese president, declared it the official president's summer residence.

Our hike will begin from Maaser Beit ElDine then in Kfarnabrakh at 1000m to reach a maximum altitude of 1150m where we will be passing through the following villages and witnessing some archeological remaining: Maaser Beit el dine - Kfarnabrakh - Ain Wa Zein - Semkanieh till Dhour Beit El Dine

At the end of the trip the club of Beit el dine is inviting us to Fattouch and appetizers 

This program is unique. Don't miss the opportunity to visit such a wonderful place.
