Syria

Visiting Syria is a journey through a biblical, mediaeval and Roman world. Damascus is the world’s oldest living city while Palmyra, remarkably preserved, was one of the great ancient trading posts. Aleppo has the largest medieval citadel in the world, Crusader history comes to life at Crac des Chevaliers and Bosra is renowned for its unique Roman Theatre.
