The Biggest Lit Cross In The World



An illuminated towering cross is seen in the village of Qanat Bakish, in the Lebanese mountains 1,800 metres above sea level on September 13, 2010. Lebanon's Maronite Christian church inaugurated the towering cross that stands 73.8 meters tall. The cross lit up with 1,800 lights was built on a mountain near a church constructed in 1898. Building the cross took about two years and cost some $1.5 million, mainly using donations from the Maronite church and a French Catholic group. The cross which its builders say is the largest in the world was inaugurated on the eve of the Elevation of the Holy Cross, marking the recovery of the cross on which Jesus Christ is believed to have been crucified by the Byzantine Emperor Heraclius in 627 AD after defeating the Sassanid Persians.
