Moussa Castle

Overview
Spend out a Private Full Day away from Beirut and visit Beiteddine. It hosts the annual Beiteddine Festival and the Beiteddine Palace Museum. Beiteddine Palace. Built over 30 years beginning in 1788, the palace was the personal home of emir Bashir Shihab II who wanted the mansion to be a place of singular beauty and legendary opulence. The castle was built on a hermitage called Beiteddine (House of Faith) and featured all manner of amenity including a lush personal apartment for the emir, a harem, and a rich guest house that was often offered to passing luminaries and dignitaries. Many of the surfaces were inlaid with intricate mosaics and designs, many of which have survived remarkably well to this day. 

Once you’ve explored the palace head to the village of Derkamar "Monastery of the Moon", it is a village in south-central Lebanon, five kilometres outside of Beiteddine consisting of stone houses with red-tiled roofs. Derkamar is a known as the Capital of Emirs. From its palaces, Mount Lebanon was governed from the 16th century until the 18th century. People from all religious backgrounds lived there and the town had a mosque, synagogue and Christian churches.

At the end, Stop and See Moussa Castle, a castle between Derkamar and Beiteddine. It is a story of one man's courage, faith, patience and hard work to turn a dream into reality because his crush said she wanted to marry a man who owned a palace. It was built single-handedly by Moussa Abdel Karim Al-Maamari. He needed 60 years (21900 days and 394200 hours) of work. The interior is brimming with sculptures handcrafted by him to represent aspects of rural Lebanese life.
