the quest for the elusive tray of soaps

by call_me_rhia - last update: Jan 31, 2003


the elusive tray of soaps
the quest lasted several hours in the Aleppo souq. They had to be green and shaped as a heart, Titti said. Needless to say, these soaps did not exist.
But it was a good excuse to see the souq inside and out.
HIGHLIGHTS

a truly fairytale citadel
an enchanting souq
quaint little old lanes

 Just looked at your wonderful Aleppo page to see what the Great Mosque looked like, but I see none! I guess you didn't take any because of the construction. Thanks for visiting Aleppo... you must go back, at least to see the restoration!

 I didn't know there were dervishes here too!! Le Baron is one of those mytical hotels I'd love to visit one day, so much History inside... Great page as usual!
