The Cedars of God, Bcharre

(100+ reviews on the web)

Forest Historic Site

Admire the rare and majestic Lebanese cedar trees at The Cedars of God. This ancient forest once overflowed with this species of cedar, and its timber was favored by Egyptians, Romans, and Persians, to name a few. Sadly, exploitation has led to mass deforestation and this forest is now rigorously protected as a World Heritage Site. Walk among the imposing trees to admire their beauty, and keep your eyes peeled for some with trunks spanning more than 10 m (32 ft) across. Sitting at an altitude of 2,000 m (6,600 ft) above sea level, the peaceful forest provides a ruggedly beautiful landscape to explore. Our Bcharre travel itinerary maker makes visiting The Cedars of God and other Bcharre attractions simple, and helps you make a travel plan personal to you.

A natural treasure! These cedars have been around for hundreds if not thousands of years. Mentioned in the Bible and worth the long trip to reach them. more »
