Halba is the capital of the Akkar Governorate in northern Lebanon, located in the plains between the Lebanese mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, about 120 kilometers from the capital Beirut. As the administrative and commercial center of the region, Halba is known for its multiculturalism and rich history, with a predominantly Sunni Muslim population and a coexistence of Christian and other communities. The town's economy is predominantly agricultural, producing olives, citrus and grains, and it is an important distribution center for agricultural products from the surrounding mountainous regions. Haledale has retained its traditional Lebanese architecture, with the stone streets of the old town and remnants of the Ottoman period telling of a prosperous past. Despite the economic challenges, the area maintains a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making it an ideal gateway to explore rural life in northern Lebanon.
