Libanon-Zeder
Lebanon has historically been defined by the mountains, which provided protection for the local population. In Lebanon, changes in scenery are related less to geographical distances than to altitudes. The mountains were known for their oak and pine forests. The last remaining old growth groves of the famous Cedar of Lebanon ("Cedrus libani" var. libanii") are on the high slopes of Mount Lebanon, in the Cedars of God World Heritage Site.
