Day 13- Lebanon

Today was my last full day and I traveled to the northernmost part of the border of Israel, Lebanon to the Cedars of Lebanon. When mentioned in the Bible, Lebanon is referred to many times as the land of trees. King Solomon sent 30,000 workers to Lebanon, 10,000 per month, to obtain the cedar for the Temple (1 Kings 5:13-14). Today the land is still full of cedar and other trees. At the end of the day I traveled back to Jerusalem, the City of David. I had time to do some shopping and visit some more sites around the city.
