    Bqaa Kafra is home to many religious institutions, including the church where Saint Charbel was baptized, the Notre Dame Church built in 1925, and the grotto where Saint Charbel used to pray.

    The isolated village also hosts many festivities, especially during Saint Charbel’s anniversary, where locals gather to exhibit their homemade products.

    The name of the village comes from the Syriac origin of “ground” and “rich,” both combined to make the meaning of “rich soil” or “fertile land.”

    It is especially stunning during the winter season when covered in snow and serenity, which earned it to be described by many describe as a “heaven of earth.”

    The village’s magical landscapes make it a lovely getaway with many guesthouses in neighboring villages, including the beautiful town of Bcharre, for visitors to enjoy the village and its surrounding for a few days.
