GIORGIO A JOUNIEH (VUE DE HARISSA)

Back


Ville côtière du Liban, située à 20 km au nord de Beyrouth, Jounieh s'étale autour d'une belle baie de 4 km sous un promontoire montagneux s'élevant à pic jusqu'à 550 mètres. Habitée principalement par des chrétiens Maronites, elle fut pendant les événements de 1975-1990 une ville refuge pour une grande partie de cette population. La baie de Jounieh est connue pour avoir la forme de la lettre "U" de l'alphabet latin. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Jounieh (Arabic جونيه, or Junia, جونية) is a Mediterranean coastal city about 15 kilometers north of Beirut, Lebanon. It is known for its seaside resorts and nightclubs, as well as its old stone souk, ferry, and cablecar (le téléphérique), which takes passengers up the mountain to the shrine of Our Lady of Lebanon in Harissa. Above Jounieh, and on the way to Harissa, a small hill named Bkerke (Arabic بكركي, or Bkerki), overlooking the Jounieh bay, is the seat of the Patriarch of the Maronite Catholic Church. Its inhabitants are predominantly Maronite and it's thus known to be the largest Maronite city in the world. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^جونيه، أو جونية، نطقه تقع في لبنان وهي أحد المناطق السياحيه فيه في محافظة جبل لبنان وهي مركز قضاء كسروان
