The Cedars of God (Arabic: أرز الربّ Arz al-Rabb "Cedars of God"), located in the Kadisha Valley of Bsharre, Lebanon, are one of the last vestiges of the extensive forests of the Lebanon cedar that anciently thrived across Mount Lebanon. All early modern travelers' accounts of the wild cedars appear to refer to the ones in Bsharri; the Christian monks of the monasteries in the Kadisha Valley venerated the trees for centuries. The earliest documented references of the Cedars of God are found in Tablets 4-6 of the great Epic of Gilgamesh, six days walk from Uruk. The Psalms of King David eg. "104:16" provide support to claims of the biblical creation story's proximity to the Cedars forest, firstly the planting of Cedars with Gods hands and secondly the name of an adjacent village in the Kadisha Valley known as Edhen (Eden).
The Phoenicians, Israelites, Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Romans, Arabs, and Turks used Lebanese timber. The Egyptians valued their timber for shipbuilding, and in the Ottoman Empire their timber was used to construct railways

Kadisha Valley, also romanized as the Qadisha Valley and also known as the Kadisha Gorge or Wadi Kadisha, is a gorge that lies within the Bsharri and Zgharta Districts of the North Governorate of Lebanon. The valley was carved by the Kadisha River, also known as the Nahr Abu Ali when it reaches Tripoli.

ادي قاديشا أو وادي قنوبين أو الوادي المقدس (أو بلدة الوادي) هو من أعمق وديان لبنان. يقع الوادي في قضاء بشري في شمال لبنان ويبعد عن العاصمة بيروت 121 كلم ويرتفع عن سطح البحر 1500م. يجري في عمقه نهر قاديشا الذي ينبع من مغارة - تسمى بمغارة قاديشا - تقع عند أقدام "أرز الرب" التي تُشرف عليها "القرنة السوداء"، أعلى قمم جبال لبنان.

Le Monastère Notre-Dame de Qannoubine (Kanobin, Kannobin, Kanubin ou Qannubin, en arabe : dayr qannūbīn, دير قنوبين) est un monastère maronite de la vallée de Qadisha, au Liban.
Il aurait été fondé par Théodose le Grand et construit en partie dans le roc vif.
Le monastère Notre-Dame de Qannoubine a été le siège du patriarcat maronite de 1440 à 1823. Vingt-quatre patriarches s’y sont succédé.
L'église du monastère est construite dans un creux de rocher. Exemple de simplicité et d'austérité, elle est rehaussée de peintures murales. La fresque la plus remarquable est celle du couronnement de la Vierge par la Trinité avec une inscription au-dessus en garshuni (arabe écrit en caractères syriaque), tirée d'un passage du Cantique des Cantiques :
« Viens du Liban, ma fiancée et tu seras couronnée ».
Le monastère est occupé depuis 1992 par une communauté de religieuses antonines.

The holy river, Nahr Qadisha, runs through the valley for 35 km from its source in a cave (grotto) a little way below the Forest of the Cedars of God. The sides of the valley are steep cliffs that contain many caves, often at more than 1,000 m and all difficult of access. The most scenic section of the valley stretches for approximately 20 km between Bsharri (Arabic: بشري‎), the hometown of Kahlil Gibran, and Tourza (Arabic: طورزا‎).
