Cedars:
The most venerable representatives of the Cedars of Lebanon,
which once covered the country's mountains, are in the Besharre
region in the North of Lebanon, Hundreds of trees stand on
slopes 2,000 meters high in the shadow of the 3,088 meter peak
of Qornet es- Sawda.
From Lebanon's cedar forests, Solomon got the timber to build
his temple and palace, while the Egyptians Pharaohs used the
wood carve their sarcophagi and 'sunships'. |
