Tabarja is a coastal town in Lebanon, situated in Kesrouan, 28 kilometers north of Beirut.
Tabarja's name is a corruption of the Greek, ΠΕΡΙΦΕΡΕΙΑ (PERIF-ER-YA), which means "district headquarters" and was once home to an ancient castle which has since been lost to modern development (though artifacts, such as Phoenician burial pots, were recovered by private collectors in the early 20th century during said modern construction).
