'''Aaichiyeh''' ({{lang-ar| عيشية }}) is a village in the [[Jezzine District]] in [[Southern Lebanon]]. It is located 82 kilometers far from [[Beirut]] and on an altitude of 750 meters
==Etymology==
The name "aïchiye" (''العيشية )'' goes back to the word "live", which is the symbol of comfortable living and the surrounding pine trees and nature.{{Citation needed|date=October 2023}}

Aichiyeh's soil is fertile, which makes its inhabitants dependent on raising livestock, bees, chickens, and growing olives and fruits such as grapes, peaches and apricots. The spring provides irrigation of cultivated lands. In the past, the villagers planted tobacco, a widespread crop at the time. Aaichiyeh is known for its abundance in oak and pine trees.
==History==
{{More citations needed|date=October 2023}}
Phoenician vases were found, indicating a previous [[Phoenicia]]n settlement. The [[Aishiyeh massacre|Aaichiyeh massacre]] in 1976 killed over 70+ people the village for the time being, until a portion of its residents came back to settle in their homes following the conflict. Today, Aichiyeh's people strongly support the [[lebanese army|Lebanese Armed Forces]] and good and strong relations between them.
During the [[Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon]], the [[Israel Defence Force|IDF]] had an army base in Aichiyeh.<ref>[[Odd Karsten Tveit|Tveit, Odd Karsten]] (2010) ''Goodbye Lebanon.
