  • Temples of Baalbek
    The complex of temples at Baalbek is located at the foot of the south-west slope of Anti-Lebanon, bordering the fertile plain of the Bekaa at an altitude of 1150 m. The city of Baalbek reached its apogee during Roman times. Its colossal constructions built over a period of more than two centuries, make it one of the most famous sanctuaries of the Roman world and a model of Imperial Roman architecture. Pilgrims thronged to the sanctuary to venerate the three deities, known under the name of the Romanized Triad of Heliopolis, an essentially Phoenician cult (Jupiter, Venus and Bacchus).
  • The Stone of the Pregnant Woman is a worked Roman monolith in Baalbek, Lebanon. Together with another ancient stone block nearby, it is among the largest monoliths ever quarried. The two building blocks were presumably intended for the nearby Roman temple complex, and are characterized by a monolithic gigantism that was unparalleled in antiquity.
  • Chateau Ksara
    Chateau Ksara is a prominent winery nestled in Lebanon's Beqaa Valley, with a rich history dating back to 1857 when it was founded by Jesuit monks. Renowned for its high-quality wines, the winery cultivates various grape varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, and Chardonnay. Chateau Ksara has contributed significantly to the resurgence of Lebanon's wine industry, attracting both local and international visitors.
