Name | Jabal Al Rihane |
Country | Lebanon |
Description | The Jabal Al Rihane Biosphere Reserve is a true mosaic of ecological systems broadly representing the (evergreen sclerophylic broussailles and forests) biogeographic region within a Mediterranean biome. A dominant feature of this biosphere reserve is the existence of many mountain peaks such as Jabal Safi, Jabal Sujud, Jabal Bir Kallab, and Jabal Bourqab that culminate at 1300, 1200, 1360 and 1300 meters respectively. This mountainous relief gives rise to a number of eco-zones. From a more aesthetic point of view, such a landscape, dominated by peaks and basins, offers wonderful limitless views. Stands of old oak trees (more than 500 years old) are recognized as outstanding scenic landscapes. |

Name | Jabal Ali |
Country | UAE |
Description | located 35 kilometers (22 mi) southwest of the city of Dubai. In 1985, the Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza) was established. Jafza, an industrial area surrounding the port, allows the international companies who relocate there to enjoy the special privileges of the free zone. These include exemption from corporate tax for fifteen years. Jebel Ali inched up to be world's 9th busiest port in 2011. It handled cargo of 13,010,000 TEUs Jebel Ali has become the port most frequently visited by ships of the United States Navy outside the United States. Due to the depth of the harbor and size of the port facilities, a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier and several ships of the accompanying battle group can be accommodated pierside. Due to the frequency of these port visits, semi-permanent liberty facilities (referred to by service personnel as The Sandbox) have been erected adjacent to the carrier berth. Among the infrastructure projects built to support the port and town is the world's largest desalination plant, the Jebel Ali Desalination Plant (Phase 2), providing an ample supply of fresh water. |
