Koura District

Koura District (Arabic: ٱلْكُورَة, from Greek: χώρα, lit.'country') is a district in the North Governorate, Lebanon.

It comprises a total of 52 villages, and its capital and largest town is Amioun, with about 10,000 inhabitants as of 2010. The district stretches from the Mediterranean Sea up to Mount Lebanon, and comprises a series of foothills surrounding a low-lying plain where olive is cultivated. The olive orchards of Koura are among the most extensive in Lebanon.
