๐ DESCRIPTION OF THE EVENT:
========================
The name Douma is of Greek origin meaning “house”, “palace” or ” ๐ castle”. Douma is also derived from the Latin word “Doman” used to designate a Queen (Julia Domna) famous for her beauty and intelligence.
Douma’s pronunciation derives as well from the Hebrew language word of “doumah” meaning calm and rest.
Almost all its houses are made of red brick which makes Douma a ๐งบ famous place. It enjoys a unique temperate climate praised by physicians as the ultimate place of medical refuge.
We will ๐ถ walk in the old souk of Douma, discover the great landmarks and take a lot of pictures.
We will start the ๐ฅพ hike in Douma and then proceed to Douma el Tahta to visit the Old Landmarks. The view ๐ซ from up there is breathtaking! It is not to be missed. Afterward, we will head to the Walnut ๐ง River crossing, where ancient sacred ๐ซ olive trees and different Phoenician temples ๐ await usโsuch as ๐ Mar Charbel Monastery. There, we will enjoy the fresh air and ๐ญ observe and taste different old ๐ฆ springs. Itโs an amazing trail where we will visit โDeir Mar Youhannaโ (Jean Monastery). Then, we will continue to Kfarhelda โ Beit Chlela along a ๐บ Phoenician trail with breathtaking views to remember forever.
๐ฟ๐ฅพ HIKING LEVEL. 1 to 3 for easy, 4 to 6 for intermediate, and 7 to 9 for strenuous.
Our hike will be divided into 3 levels.
๐
