Damascus: Hidden Treasures of the Old City
Brigid Keenan, Tim Beddow (Photographer), Wafic Said (Preface) Damascus, reputed to be the oldest continually inhabited city on earth, has enjoyed eras of immense power,
and great cultural and artistic achievement. Alongside some of the most magnificent architecture in the Islamic
world, such as the Umayyad Mosque, the city can also boast a heritage of fairytale palaces and sumptuous
private houses now threatened by neglect. This book sets out to record these architectural gems and to raise
the awareness of the outside world to the plight of the Old City of Damascus before it is too late. The authors
were given unprecedented access to the "hidden" city in order to complete the task. The text describes
Damascus through the ages, gives an account of daily life and concludes with descriptions of the houses and the people who built and lived in them.

Bosra al Shaam - an Amazing Historic City
Situated at about 40 km east of Deraa, Bosra, is excellently well-preserved and of monuments of great
dimensions- a monumental town like Palmyra and Petra. Once the capital of the Roman province of Arabia, an
important stopover on the ancient caravan route to Mecca, Bosra has conserved within its thick walls a magnificent Roman theatre from the 2nd century early Christian ruins and several mosques.
Homs
Latakia / Lattakia [ Saladdin Castle ]
Latakia is Syria's main seaport on the Mediterranean. It lies 186 km southwest of Aleppo, 348 km northwest of Damascus. It has retained its importance since ancient times.
Latakia's history goes back a long way. In the 2nd Millennium BC Latakia was part of the Kingdom of Ugarit.
Ugarit a Syro-Phoenician kingdom is being excavated at the moment about 20 km north of Latakia. Then it fell to the Assyrians, and then the Persians.
Devastating earthquakes in 494 and 555 badly damaged Latakia, but it was rebuilt by Justinian. Latakia was
taken in AD 638 by the Arabs, in 1097 - 1103 by the crusaders, and in 1188 by Saladin. Subsequently the
town was administered by Christians from Tripoli, Muslims from Hama, and the Ottoman Turks; it came within the French mandate of Syria and Lebanon in 1920.

Krak Des Chevaliers - Burcht van de kruisvaarders
'The most admirable castle in the whole world', this is what Lawrence of Arabia had to say about the greatest
of Crusades castles in Syria. The Castle is located at an altitude of 650 meters, on the top of a volcanic cliff.
The view, as seen from its towers, covers a vast land extending from Mount Lebanon to the valleys of Homs and the Mediterranean shores.

Seydnaya - Grieks-orthodox klooster met wonderbaarlijk ikoon
Muslim and Christian pilgrimages alike head to Seidnaya from Lebanon, Syria and Jordan to pay homage to this great shrine. A legend tells that the monastery was founded in the sixth century.
When the Byzantine Emperor Justinian was chasing a deer on to the top of the hill during a hunting game, and
just as he was about to draw his bow, the deer miraculously converted into the Virgin Mary and commanded him to build a convent on the rock.
