The Cedar Tree not only decorates the Lebanese flag, but the typical Lebanese cedar is very rare and mainly grows in the mountain region of Lebanon. Next to the Cedar, the forests, which once covered the land, also offer pine and oak trees. Today, only 10 % of area is wooded.
Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild, moist winters characterise Lebanon, especially in the coastal region.
