- Qadisha Valley - Qadisha Valley is a significant site for the earliest Christian monasteries globally, with many ancient monasteries nestled in a remarkably rugged landscape. The valley encompasses all the caves, monasteries, and cultivated terraces linked to early Christian activities.
- Bcharre - Bcharre is renowned for housing the only remaining and preserved original Cedars of God and is the birthplace of the esteemed poet, painter, and sculptor Khalil Jubran, who is honored with a museum in the town. Additionally, Bcharre is home to the oldest skiing area, the Cedars Ski Resort, and Lebanon’s first ski lift, established in 1953. Bcharre is often referred to as “the city of churches” due to its 37 churches.
- Gibran Museum - The Gibran Museum, once the Monastery of Mar Sarkis, is a biographical museum located in Bcharre, Lebanon. It is dedicated to the Lebanese writer, philosopher, and artist Kahlil Gibran. Established in 1935, the museum holds 440 original paintings and drawings by Gibran, along with his tomb. It also features his furniture and belongings from his New York City studio and his private manuscripts.
- The Cedars of God - The Forest of the Cedars of God, with its 375 trees, is the last remnant of ancient forests and one of the few places where Cedars still grow. Highly valued in ancient times, it was a prized construction material for significant religious buildings and is mentioned 103 times in the Bible. The Cedar is a national symbol, a source of pride, and prominently displayed on the Lebanese flag.
- Deir Qozhaya - The Monastery of Saint Anthony the Great is located 950 meters above sea level in the renowned Valley of Qozhaya. The surrounding hills are covered with pine and oak trees, and fruit trees of various kinds grow throughout the valley, which extends into the Valley of Qannubin to form the grand Qadisha Valley. This area is a testament to the history of eremitic life and the pursuit of holiness in Lebanon. Historians and scholars believe the monastery was first constructed and inhabited by hermits in the early fourth century. Despite being looted, burned, and destroyed several times, remnants from the seventh century still exist.
