Jubet Berghal, according to Mayor of Karm Al-M\u2019aysra municipality to which the village is affiliated, Mudar Murshid.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the forests of pine, oak and perennial cedar which fence the village, make it more beautiful.<br \/>\nMurshid told SANA that the village is administratively affiliated to the al-Haffah area in al-Muzairaa Township as it is famous of growing wheat and tobacco, in addition to cold-resistant fruit trees.<\/p>\n<p>He added that the village has stunning views on al-Sarraj River Valley site, where the Ministry of Tourism held \u201cAwafi\u201d festival
