About
Clinging to a high cliff above the Qadisha area near Kousba, this Greek Orthodox monastery dates its oldest church to the 4th century and preserves medieval frescoes, including the Virgin enthroned. Reaching it means parking in the valley and climbing a steep two-kilometre path that gains over 200 metres — about thirty demanding minutes rewarded by sweeping views. It remains a living pilgrimage site.
