Taybeh (Arabic: (طيبة (بعلبك))) is a village in the Baalbek District in Baalbek-Hermel Governorate.

History

[edit]

In 1838, Eli Smith noted el-Taiyibeh as a village in the Baalbek area, whose inhabitants were Catholic.[1]

[edit]

The 2011 Lebanese film Where Do We Go Now? directed by Nadine Labaki was partly shot in the village because it features a church next to a mosque, as in the plot of the movie.
