(800 m, 16km from Beirut)
The sudden dramatic height
of Mount Lebanon gives Beit Mery, at 800 meters, spectacular views
of the Beirut peninsula and large sections of the coast. The East
side also offers scenic views of the deep valley of Al Jaamani River and
the majestic Sannine mountain.
Beit Mery is a popular resort with good restaurants, entertainment and
hotels ready to receive visitors. The town is also the scene of an annual
winter cultural festival at the
Bustan Hotel that features international
drama and dance groups as well as orchestras and chamber ensembles.
Beit Mery also has its own summer festival held around the center of the
town.
