Two of the eight Ottoman governors of Mount Lebanon are buried here: France Pasha (1868-1873) and Wassa Pasha (1883-1892). In the valley east of
Hazmieh are the remains of a Roman Aqueduct. Although the main span
has disappeared, substantial sections can be seen on both banks. It is locally known as Qanater
Zubaida. |
