    • the citadel, inside, it really but an empty shell. All buildings except a few are crumbling down or about to... Extensive work is being carried out, but it'll really take ages to make it worth visiting. The throne room is really nice, but it's the only sight worth visiting - overpriced at 150 Syrian pounds.

    At Least Do This: see the throne room - and think of the entrance ticket as a help towards future reconstruction...
    Alternative: Buy a postcard of the throne room, and save some money (spend it at the souq nearby)

     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!    		SirRichard Mon Mar 1, 2004 11:43 UTC
     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!
