Temple of Bziza
Bziza (Arabic: بزيزا) is a village in Koura District of Lebanon. There is a well-preserved Roman temple with three of its frontal portico columns still standing. In Byzantine times a two-apse church known as Our Lady of the Columns was built within its walls.[1]
The population is primarily but not exclusively Maronite with some Eastern and Greek Orthodox residents.[2]
