Irkay
Irkay (Arabic إركي) (also known as Irkey, Erki, Erkay) is a small town located in the South of Lebanon (Al Janub) between the major cities of Sidon and Sur. It has a population of approximately 5000 people. ==Geography== Irkay is situated in the Al-Janub (Southern) governorate, southeast from the capital, Beirut, and borders two small towns, ‘Izzah in the east and Khzaz in the west. It is only 36 miles (78 km) from Beirut and only 9 miles (15 km) from Sidon, one of the main ports in Lebanon. Irkay is well known for producing olive oil this is due to the white, fertile soil which also helps to grow flavorful figs. The major river in the South, Al Zahrani, flows next to Irkay and further helps to promote the crop growth and also provides a source of leisure for the residents. The town is situated on the Jabal ‘Aamel mountain range which begins from Sidon and stretches throughout the South, making the town’s average altitude 1243 feet (378m) above sea-level. The low population of 4850 people and the vast area of the town resulted in a small population density and hence many houses are scattered at different altitudes within the town region.
