City of Baniyas
Baniyas (Arabic: بَانِيَاس Bāniyās) is a Mediterranean coastal city in Tartus Governorate, western Syria, located 55 km (34 mi) south of Latakia and 35 km (22 mi) north of Tartus. Its ancient name was Balaneais, Balanaea or Balanea but it was also called Leucas or Leucas-Claudia.
It is known for its citrus fruit orchards and its export of wood. North of the city is an oil refinery, the largest in Syria, and a power station. The oil refinery is connected with Iraq by the Kirkuk–Baniyas pipeline (defunct since the US-led 2003 invasion of Iraq).
On a nearby hill stands the Crusader castle of Margat (Qalʻat al-Marqab), a huge Knights Hospitaller fortress built with black basalt stone.
