The Jaj Cedar Reserve is situated about 68 kilometers from Beirut. This cluster of cedars is one of the most ancient natural reserves left of the forest that once covered the whole region and which the kings of Byblos exploited during the 3rd millennium B.C.
On the heights of Jaj, there are now only a few fine specimens of cedars, hundreds of years old, rooted among the masses of rock. There is a little chapel within the small forest cluster of the trees, making this spot the perfect spot for meditation.
