Miniyeh-Danniyeh District, Administrative district in North Governorate, Lebanon

Miniyeh-Danniyeh District is a district in Lebanon's North Governorate that includes the Dinniyeh and Miniyeh regions. It covers 362 square kilometres on the northern and western hills of Al-Makmel mountain, Lebanon's highest, which occupies more than two-thirds of the district. The district comprises 35 towns and has large forests of cedar, oak, pine and other long-lived trees.

The district's modern administrative shape dates from 2004, when a development union of 20 municipalities was founded on 31 December, later joined by eight more. The area takes its name from the Dinniyeh and Miniyeh regions, with Miniyeh serving as capital in autumn and winter and Syr Dinniyeh in spring and summer. Kütahya in Turkey is its sister city.

The district is home to several religious communities that have coexisted in this region for many generations. Their different traditions shape how people celebrate seasons and mark important occasions throughout the year.

The district spreads over the northern and western hills of Al-Makmel mountain, above the Northern Lebanese and Syrian coasts. Miniyeh serves as the administrative capital in autumn and winter, while Syr Dinniyeh takes over in spring and summer. Roads link the villages through the mountain slopes, so plan travel around the seasonal shift of the capital.

The district operates under an unusual system where two different cities serve as the administrative center depending on the season. This traditional practice reflects the distinct climate differences between the higher and lower zones of the region.
