History

Mristi holds a wide stretch of common woodland whose oaks include trees more than a thousand years old. The townspeople gave up some of their money and gold to the Ottoman authorities to stop the trees being cut, and the wood now falls within the cedar reserve, looked after by residents and the Shouf Cedar Society.
