Beiteddine (Beit ed-Dine)
Beirut, Lebanon
Beiteddine is an 18th-century palace complex located in the Chouf Mountains, built by Emir Bechir II using local limestone, intricately designed with beautiful courtyards, ornate mosaics, and classic arches. The structure reflects a blend of Lebanese and Ottoman architectural styles, set amidst lush gardens that provide a serene escape from the city.
Allocate a couple of hours to explore the palace and its surrounding village, ideally visiting during the spring or fall when the weather is pleasant. The nearby town of Deir el-Qamar offers additional historical context and scenic views of the landscape, enhancing the overall experience.

“Our friends suggested we explore the Chouf region, and we're really happy we listened. The Cedars Forest was breathtaking—tranquil, picturesque, and rich in history. We got to see one of the oldest trees, believed to be over 3,000 years old, which was a unique experience. All in all, it was a soothing and unforgettable outing that we would certainly recommend.”— S498PRginag on the Day trip to Deir al Qamar, Beiteddine Palace, and Chouf Cedars from Beirut tour
