All Hotels near Jezzine in Lebanon
Jezzine means “lockers and stores” in the Syriac language from which it is derived. Judging by the number of preserved statues and sarcophagi that were found here, in ancient times it is likely that Jezzine served as a storehouse location for Saida, since it was on the natural route of Saida’s caravans going from the coast through the Chouf and the Beqa’a to Syria. The archeological sites in Jezzine that have been studied confirm the past significance of the town as an important transportation link in South Lebanon. Among the village’s historic ruins are the Shakif Teron fortress, the Marmaghieh cemetery in Kroum Al-Jabal (or “burial site of the wealthy”), the old serial and municipality hall, in addition to a number of old traditional houses. The religious character of the village is revealed by the number of old churches and monasteries it contains. Jezzine is also noted for its ponds and lakes and is known as the “city of falls” because of its famous waterfalls, the Jezzine Falls. With regard to traditional handicrafts, the town is internationally renowned for its handcrafted knives and other cutlery, made of inlaid mosaics and bone, which have long been presented as gifts to dignitaries all over the world and are still prized today as unique mementos of Lebanon.
