📜 DESCRIPTION OF THE EVENT:
========================
Annoubine’s history dates back to ⚱️ the 7th century. It has 💒 monasteries and sanctuaries spread all over the gorge, in the form of caves or churches.
Since the early centuries of Christianity, the 🕊 Holy Valley has served as a refuge for those in search of solitude. Historians believe that the Kadisha Valley has had monastic communities continuously since the 🏺 earliest years of Christianity. It was also at times a destination for Muslim mystics, or Sufis, who also visited it for meditation and solitude.
