The city of Damascus was founded over 4,000 years ago, making it one of the world’s oldest cities. It has taken a prominent role in the history of the region, including gaining multiple mentions in religious texts. You will find that the modern city is just as beautiful as the old city and provides visitors with numerous opportunities to explore.
Be sure to visit the Souq al-Hamidiyya during your time in the city. You enter the marketplace by walking through columns that were built for a Roman temple. The street is quite wide, but the shops are quite tiny to accommodate the sheer number of vendors that are present. You can find everything from silk to spices as you wander.
At the end of the market tis the Umayyad Mosque, which is one of the most unique buildings in the world. It is one of the holiest places in Islam and the complex contains the tomb of Saladin. Throughout history, the site has been dedicated to worship, from Christianity to the Assyrians. Even a temple to Jupiter was built here by the Romans. Artwork from each era can still be seen throughout the complex.
You will also want to take the time to view the city from Mount Qasioun. It is very spectacular at night, with the stars shining down on the bright lights of the city. Damascus is one of those amazing jewels that seem to have a surprise waiting around every corner for the visitor to enjoy. Plan ahead to ensure that your stay can be as safe and enjoyable as possible.
