Belad Bechara, also spelled Bilad Beshara (Шаблон:Lang-ar), is a popular and historic name for a mountainous region in Jabal Amel in Southern Lebanon.

Etymology

Some historians believe that the name Belad Bechara means the "Country of the Gospel" in reference to the teaching and revelation of Christ in the region while others believe it is in reference to an Ayyubid prince by the name of Bechara.[1]
