Bsharri Cedar Forest, also known as the Cedars of God, is a historic and majestic patch of cedar trees in northern Lebanon. This forest houses some of the oldest cedars, which have been mentioned throughout history, including in ancient religious texts. The cedars are the national emblem of Lebanon and symbolise holiness, peace, and eternal life. Located in the Bsharri region, the Cedars of God are perched on the slopes of Mount Makmel at an altitude of over 2,000 meters above sea level. They are a remnant of the extensive forests that used to cover the mountains of Lebanon in ancient times. The site has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, emphasizing its cultural, historical, and ecological significance. The majestic trees, some of which are over 1,000 years old, have a formidable presence, and the forest is a haven for wildlife. The area is also well-known for skiing in winter, hiking, and as a place of serenity among the millenary cedars. Preservation efforts have been important in protecting these ancient trees from the threats of climate change and deforestation.
