Roman Temples ofthe Bkaa Valley
The fertile Bkaa Valley stretches between the Mount Lebanon chain
to the west and the Anti-Lebanon mountains to the east. Throughout
history, the valley has been a major crossroad between northern
Syria and Palestine, and between the Mediterranean coast and the
interior. This favorable geographic situation has encouraged humansettlement in the valley since ancient times. Today, the cities and
villages of the Bkaa still preserve the remains of the people who
lived there centuries ago. Roman temples, Islamic structures, and
archaeological sites dating from many different historical periods
transform the valley into a virtual open-air museum. It would be
impossible to describe all the Roman temples of the Bkaa Valley.
This brochure will focus on five of the most significant sites: Fourzol,
Niha, Hosn Niha, Temnine El-Faouqa and Qsarnaba.
