May be difficult for us to imagine that there is a place with this amazing mix of beauty and mystery on the planet, but what is more surprise is Where is this place! This place is the valley of Kadisha Valley or Qannoubine, which is one of the deepest valleys of Lebanon, located about 121 kilometers north of the Lebanese capital, Beirut, and there is a river in the depths of the valley of Kadisha .




Kadisha Valley is 1500 meters rises from the sea , in it you find all the colors beginning of the blue beauty of the river that is going on in the depths of the valley through the trees, vegetation, which covered the mountains and access to the whites of the clouds and fog that makes Kadisha Panel legendary beauty too!


This is a great symbol of the Christian Maronite community because it contains many churches and monasteries, so it is also called the Valley of the Saints. The awe and splendor of this place was the point of retreats for Muslims also as mentioned by Andalusian traveler Ibn Jubayr when he visited the valley of Kadisha in the twelfth century.


Kadisha Valley begins at the Bachri town, the birth place of Lebanese creative poet Gibran Khalil Gibran , and I think that makes sense to become who born amid these scenes, so creative poet!
