    Akkar is one of the most famous districts of Lebanon, rich in cultural, natural, and historical sights.

    Bkarzla (also called Bakarzala or Boukarzala) is one of the many different villages in the district of Akkar, North of Lebanon.

    The waterfalls of Bkarzla are one of the most mesmerizing gems of Akkar, for the heavy flow and clean waters of this river stem from the northern parts of Akkar.

    Local people from Bkarzla and Akkar are always seen gathered on the shores of the waterfall to swim and jump.

    They advise other people coming from cities and other villages to only perform these activities if they are skilled dippers, for the heavy flow can be dangerous.
