Mount Lebanon Governorate, Administrative district in central Lebanon.
Mount Lebanon Governorate extends across 1,238 square kilometers, from Mediterranean coastal areas to elevated mountain ranges reaching 3,000 meters above sea level.
The region underwent administrative changes in 2017 when Jbeil and Keserwan districts separated from Mount Lebanon Governorate to form an independent administrative division.
The districts of Aley, Baabda, Chouf, and Matn reflect demographic patterns with Christian populations primarily in Metn and Baabda, while Druze communities concentrate in Aley.
The governorate contains twelve industrial zones and maintains 260 hotels, making it a central hub for manufacturing and hospitality sectors in Lebanon.
Mount Lebanon Governorate encompasses Beirut within its territory, creating a geographical configuration where one governorate completely surrounds another.
