Amchit old village, Byblos / Jbeil·4.5(60)·Free
About
Once a wealthy silk-trading town between Byblos and Batroun, Amchit is dotted with 18th- and 19th-century mansions whose ceilings carry Baroque-Ottoman frescoes. Wander the old quarter to see landmark houses such as the Zakhia and Wehbe residences and centuries-old churches. It remains a low-key, authentic corner far from the tourist crowds.
