Rahbe

Rahbe (Arabic: رحبة) is a village in Akkar, north Lebanon area. It is located 50 km from Tripoli. It is spread around an extinct volcano, which is common in Akkar. The village is very large and has 20 000 inhabitants but we can not talk of town because there is no real trade or industry. During the civil war, Sunnis have largely left the city, today there are 500 Muslims. In 2004 the eighth century remains were discovered.
