(86 km from Beirut) - Roman Temples
Qasr Naous is located
on a High Plateau overlooking the Koura district. Its two Temple
sites are each with enclosures and well-preserved
doorways. The reconstructed "eastern temple" has one wall intact
and parts of two other walls.
The "western temple" has not been fully reconstructed, but its
foundation and the tumbled columns and capitals show it was a large
impressive structure. On this site is a damaged bust of the Roman sun god,
Helios.
