The Famous Village of BICKFAYA: Up the Mountains, A Renowned Summer Destination Since Forever

#Bikfaya (#بكفيا‎, also spelled #Bickfaya, #Beckfayya, or #Bekfaya) is a town in the Matn District region of Mount #Lebanon. Its stone houses with red-tiled roofs resting amidst pine and oak forests make Bikfaya one of the most sought-after suburbs of Beirut and one of Lebanon's most popular #summerresorts.

The name Bikfaya is contraction of the Aramaic (Syriac) compound phrase "Beit Kiifa", בית קיפיא, with "Kifayya" being the relative adjective of the word "rock" or "stone" in Aramaic. And so, Bikfaya would mean the "house of stone" or "the rocky/stony house" with the semantic connotation of "the place, location of stones, or stone quarry.
