Harissa is an important religious and touristic site, located on a mountain, high above a coastal town known as Jounieh. You can go to Harissa via cable cars otherwise known as the Teleferique, from Jounieh. It's a beautiful site, which overlooks Lebanon and the Mediterranean Sea.

The main holy site consists of a large statue, which is painted in white, of the Virgin Mary, also known as Our Lady of Lebanon. One can climb the stairs and go right to the top of the statue, and is an area of complete serenity and calmness. It is a place where people can pray in peace, and also enjoy the view of from the very top (Harissa is located about 650 meters from sea level)

I recommend this place because it's such a beautiful and relaxing place to visit every year. Tourists from all walks of life visit Harissa, to be blessed by Virgin Mary. It is definitely a place to visit and enjoy in the Lebanon.
