  • This is a cedar forest including Hadath El-Jebbe, Mazraat Bani Saab, Qnat of Becharré Caza and Niha - Tannourine of Batroun Caza. It is near the protected Cedar of ARZ AL-Batrak (Cedars of Archbishop) that was offered in the 19th century by Abi-Saab family to the Archbishop becoming a Maronite property.
