Anjar / Անճար :
About 55 km east of Beirut,
Anjar was once a commercial center on the
caravan route as well as a summer and hunting resort
for the Umayyad dynasty. The walls of the Caliph's
palace are still largely intact, with clues to the
former presence of forty towers. There are
indications, however, that there may once have been a
Roman castle on the hill as there are traces of
fluted columns.
