4.13 Qadisha Valley
I met a pair of Brit boys at the hostel. We descended the steep rock cliffs of the Qadisha via a goat trail to the valley floor and hiked along the river for 4 hours. We passed 2 monasteries, built into the valley's caves, and various other religious sites and hermitages. Centuries ago the persecuted Christians sought refuge in this hard-to-reach land. Their descendants still populate the region.
