Taybeh (Arabic: (طيبة (بعلبك))) is a village in the Baalbek District in Baalbek-Hermel Governorate.

History

In 1838, Eli Smith noted el-Taiyibeh as a village in the Baalbek area, whose inhabitants were Catholic.

In popular culture

The 2011 Lebanese film Where Do We Go Now? directed by Nadine Labaki was partly shot in the village because it features a church next to a mosque, as in the plot of the movie.
