Here is where mountains plunge into the sea while others stand tall enough to claim Lebanon's highest peaks.  Its two fertile agricultural areas, Koura and Akkar, also boasts of Roman Temples and mountain resorts.  But nothing can match the famous Cedar grove near Bcharreh and its masterpiece gorge, the Qadisha valley.

The northern sector of Lebanon begins at the town of Batroun 50km, mentioned in the ancient Egyptian Tal-el-Amara tablets.  In Greco-Roman days, it made a name for itself as a pirate lair.  A walk through Batroun's twisting lanes in the old town and a visit to its architecturally eclectic cathedral are recommended for those who enjoy exploring the picturesque corners of old Lebanon.
