Kfertay

Also "Kfartay" is another town located in Keserwan District There are two likely theories for the origin of the word Kfertay: Kfertay is located in the Mount Lebanon Mohafaza at an altitude of 1200 m above the sea level.It lies east of the Mediterranean Sea and 45 km from Beirut and spreads across 300 hectares.The coordinates of this town are 33.9271° N, 35.5864° E. At first, Kfertay's residents used to rely on agriculture but soon shifted to commerce and free professions or held jobs in both public and private sectors, which resulted in neglected land.In the past few years, Kfertay attracted scores of Khalijis who bought property and built homes, thus stirring momentum in the town.The town includes stone tombs and sarcophagi from the Ancient Roman era with engraved inscriptions.
