A hidden gem to explore, the ancient village of Kfarhouna in Jezzine goes back to the Phoenician times, hence its Aramaic name, originally Kfar Ahoni, meaning The Village of Young Siblings.
Kfarhouna, also called Kfar Hoûné, is located some 80 km from Beirut at 1100-1300 meters above sea level. This glaring yet underrated village that is little talked about boasts amazing greenery, astonishing sceneries, and beautiful sites worth a road trip.
Now it’s probably the time to escape the hustle and stress of daily life and take a peace-infusing journey of discovery through this serene yet active town in South Lebanon.
