Aydamun (Template:Lang-ar) (also spelled as Aidamoun or Aaidamoun)[1][2][3] is a Lebanese village.[4]
Location
It is located in Akkar District, about 15 minutes away from Kouachra, and 3 hours from the capital Beirut.[4]
Population
It has a population of about 3,000 people, 75% of whom are of Sunni Turkish origin. Christians comprise the remainder (80% are Greek Orthodox, and 20% are Maronite).[4] Due to its Turkish ethnic links, the village has received Turkish developmental assistance and funding. However, its Turkish links are not as strong as the nearby Turkish-populated village of Kouachra.[5] In 1966 the village had a population of about 300 people, and it was famous for producing Akkar carpets, which were home-produced by the local women.[6]
The villagers support the Future Movement political party.[4]
