Qadisha Valley lies within the Becharre and Zgharta Districts of the North Governate of Lebanon.
The valley is a deep gorge carved by Qadisha River, also known as Nahr Abu Ali when it reaches Tripoli. Qadisha means “Holy” in Aramaic, and the valley, sometimes called the Holy Valley, has sheltered Christian monastic communities for many centuries. Filled with caves and rock shelters inhabited from the third millennium B.C. to the Roman period, the valley is scattered with cave chapels, hermitages and monasteries cut from rock.
The whole valley with its cave churches is inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage List. There are around 13 different trails in this holy valley.
