Instagram: @makram.radwan, A beautiful place and destination. The whole area is peaceful and magical. The hike down the valley is awesome, a nice beautiful trail with so many things to discover. There’s the monastery, some caves, the river and the beauty of nature. You will enjoy all of this and take some wonderful pictures. The valley is huge and you will need so many visits to explore more of it.

amazing old maronite monastery full of history. here one could feel the divine energy. the monastery is in the middle of natire and one can only reach it walking/hiking. the best thing is to visit and stay iver for the night for the optimal spiritual experience. the nuns are very nice and will take care of you.

You will discover Lebanon if you don't visit Annoubin - Qadisha Valley in north Lebanon. The place is peaceful, far from villages and people. You will just find peace, meditation and a very nice nature. Archeological sites and history are everywhere. The place is magical.

Amazing peaceful place, trail about 2 hours, you stop to meditate and their are quotes on signboard. You worship God's creation, it is so beautiful, the nature is all around, we stop to eat in the restaurant of Joseph's restaurant, the man is so generous and have a delicious food.

This is a very old monastery and it is worth the visit. It took us around a 2 hour hike to get there. The nun we met was so friendly and helped us by opening the souvenirs place. This place has so much history in it and it is totally worth the visit. You can also call the place and stay there for a night or more.

What an absolutely beautiful place! Heaven on earth and you can literally feel the peace and serenity. Must visit

We walked to Qannoubine Monastery after a rocky cart ride near Mar Lichaa. The closer we got, the more army and police type people we saw. A helicopter zoomed overhead at one point. Honestly we had no idea what was going on and almost wanted to turn around and go back to avoid danger. But it was quite the opposite. The Maronite Patriarch was celebrating mass in the church we wanted to visit. The road there is more like a walk way. Take comfortable shoes and lots of water. It gets really hot in summer. The monastery was packed out so I could hardly take a good look but it was still beautiful and sentimental. The path can be better. I hope they fix it. You will struggle if you are unfit.

Such a beautiful and peaceful place, worth all the trip to Qadisha valley!

Scenic hike to the monastery which is very calm and peaceful. Open for visitors free of charge with free drinking water

A must visit!!! This place has a lot to offer. A good hike in well preserved world heritage nature in addition to rich historical and religious aspect in every corner of the valley. In winter it's snowy and cold, in summer it's a bit warm make sure to take plenty of water. Best time to hike is in spring and autumn.

Historical, peaceful, religious site . For those who are interested in hiking and religious tourism, go to the qannoubine valley. In addition to that, people are really nice inside the monastery!

My first visit to this church and It was a great opportunity to attend a mass there. Awesome place 🙏

I bow my head for his mighty. The walk or the drive to that monastery is magical, truelly inspiring and you will find peace there. The old church im that monastery was built in the year 374 as i was told. And it became the lebanon patriarch seat in the late 1300's.

A must go-to place. You will experience what peace is truly like. If you want to truly get have fun,go there on foot. **If you are in a vehicle, don't go offraoding because the road is very tight and you come to a closed end.**

A highly recommended place to hike and to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.

Amazing place for nature lovers
