Description
Béqaa, also spelled Bekaa, is a fertile valley located in Lebanon, bordered by the Lebanon mountain range to the west and the Anti-Lebanon mountain range to the east. The valley is known for its rich agricultural production, including fruits, vegetables, and grains, making it one of the country's key agricultural regions. Its favorable climate and soil conditions contribute to the high quality of its produce.
Historically, Béqaa has played an important role in the cultural and economic life of Lebanon. The region has been inhabited since ancient times and has seen various civilizations, including the Phoenicians and the Romans. The remnants of these civilizations, like the Roman temples at Baalbek, attract many tourists and are vital to the historical significance of the area.
In addition to agriculture and tourism, Béqaa is also known for its wine production, with several wineries established in the region. The unique climate of the valley supports the cultivation of high-quality grapes, making Béqaa a prominent player in Lebanon's emerging wine industry. This has led to a growing recognition of Lebanese wines on the international stage.
