EDITORS COMMENTS
Nahr al-Kalb, or 'Dog River,' is a picturesque estuary located in Lebanon, north of Beirut, that empties into the Mediterranean Sea. The name 'Dog River' is believed to have originated from the shape of the estuary, which resembles a dog's head. The source of Nahr al-Kalb is in Mount Lebanon, and the river winds its way through a beautiful gorge before reaching the sea. This photograph, estimated to date back to the 1910s, captures the estuary's tranquil beauty. The mouth of the river is seen merging with the Mediterranean Sea, creating a breathtaking scene of blue waters meeting the sandy shore. The image also reveals a bridge and a road leading to the estuary, suggesting that the area was an important transportation hub even back then. In the background, railway tracks can be seen, further emphasizing the area's historical significance as a transportation center. The lush greenery and mountains in the distance add to the serene atmosphere of the scene. Nahr al-Kalb is a beloved natural landmark in Lebanon, and this photograph offers a glimpse into its past charm. The image invites us to imagine the daily life of the people who lived and worked in this area over a century ago.
