Its a very amazing and great place, praying there is the best with its atmosphere being fantastic and even in hot time you will be cold up there, if I had the chance to go there everyday I will

The church has an amazing view. Interior was also unique

Saydet el Noorieh is a spot of serenity. The place is quiet and the view over the sea is simply breathtaking.. you can simply admire quietly the beauty of the sea from the cliff. The inside is fully renovated. It is a great place to go with family

A historical Christian convent in a very beautiful location. From the convent, a very beautiful view and panorama in the seaside: blue sky and blue sea. With a clear sky you can see a long stretch of the coast on both left and right.

One of more magical locations around the Chekka area in North Lebanon. If you are heading north, stop for a few minutes if just for the view. The convent (listed wrongly as a monastery), which is run by Orthodox nuns, sits atop a hill and has a view that extends from the Chekka Bay to Tripoli and beyond. There are steps behind the convent - ask the nuns for the key if the gate is closed - that lead to the much older ruins of an old church that is built into the rock and that is associated to the legend that gives the place its name. Don't skip this part because the view will be just as striking as the one that you will get from the top of the hill.

Such a beautiful monastery. The hermit cave was closed due to renovation

A serene beautiful peaceful place. The chapel is definitely worth to visit. It’s a holy sacred place the stands on a green hill on a steep cliff overlooking the blue sea and the amazing landscapes of Batroun area. The historic place is very beautiful, well-reserved. Loves it and will definitely go again and again

It is one of my best spots to visit in Lebanon. Beautiful scenery, and great views of the coast. Magical place to pass by and pay respect for such a divine beauty.

Best place ever

One of the most beautiful and serene places in Lebanon. Be prepared for some prayer and meditation when you visit this monastery. It is a greek orthodox one where nuns wear head covers (hijab). The big church is beautiful and make sure to visit the old church through the long stairs outside which leads to it. There are ruins of the historic monastery downstairs and you can't miss the breathtaking views of the Mediterranean sea and the north coast. Such a blessing to have Saydit el Nouriye.

Favorite place. The old church is breathtaking. The nuns are so sweet. You can go downstairs and see the little church too surrounded with people’s wishes. The view gives you peace. You can sit for hours and hours. It’s so calm. You can see the pure blue sea. Next to it you can have the best saj and fresh products from the garden. My place to go always

Perfect place to pray, enjoy the calm atmosphere with a breathtaking view. Many different spots to see, two churches and several view points. Sometimes the gate that leads all the way down is closed so that depends on your luck. However, with that, it's still worth the visit. The whole place is very well maintenained and clean. Easy to get there and big spaces for parking.

Impressive view

Greek orthodox Monastery , genuine Byzantine mass, variety of Monastery hand-made food (jams, labneh...) amazing souvenirs

We used to visit this monastery from a schoold trip when I was in elementary school. It's still as wonderful as I remember it.

Such a holy place and a MUST Visit! What a special monastery and location!!

A beautiful church to visit in Hamat! Relax, pray and enjoy the breathtaking views of the moutain meeting the sea!

A must visit place! i love visiting the monastery, it's a peaceful place to disconnect, relax & pray. You can go downstairs to see the old church which is amazing! i love visiting this spot during sunset. Sometimes they close the gate, you need to check with the nuns at the church.

The road leading there is amazing. The place is peaceful with an overlooking view of the sea and the coast.

A historical Christian convent located in North of lebanon, it has a strategic location and located up on the hill with views of the sky and sea and surrounded by greenery .Kindly respect the silence and sacredness of the place and wear modest clothing . Must Visit .

Our lady of noorieh located in Hamat, 20 min far from highway. A great place to visit if you are looking for a religious tourism in lebanon. You can visit the church and has a magnificent view for the sea

Peaceful place, full of history and amazing spot overlooking Chekka bay. Must visit and highly recommended

Splendide view and warm feeling inside the monastery

Very nice orthodox monastery with forestry all around it. It is on a nice hill next to a cliff. The church is beautiful and very good place for peace and prayer. You can take a staircase to go down the hill slope to get to small rooms that the Christians have built to hide from the ottomans. All in all, it is a great place to go to if you are around Batroun and Chekka and if you like praying and calmness. NOTE: be careful going down the staircase and entering the rooms because the road isn't that safe and it not suitable for really small kids and seniors because the staircase is steep and hard to climb back up.

2 words : Holy ground!!! The story goes that our Lady the blessed Virgin Mary appeared for a sailor in distress at sea near Noorieh shore & she was his guiding star in the midst of the storm & led him to safety & so the monastery was built in her honor at the spot (on the mountain) where she appeared 🙏🙏🙏🙏💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💟💟💟💟💟

Amazing place, there are two churches. One of them is very old. You have to take long stairs down to reach it but it's totally worth it. There is an great view.

Secluded nature

Great worship place lying on top of a hill overlooking the bay of shekkah below.
