Doubay Fortress / Castle – Chaqra, Bint Jbeil

Doubay Fortress / Castle – Chaqra, Bint Jbeil

We visited it on our way to Tyre (sour). A place not to missed if you are in the south, you will notice the fortress and you will be immediately interested in checking it. Situated on a steep and narrow spur running into the great Wady Selukieh, it protected the northern road that led up that valley, and also made a connecting link between Hunin and Tibnin. The fortress/castle is neglected due to land dispute between the two villages, however some kind hands are protecting it by cleaning the land and removing the bushes.
