"MEET ESSALAMEH!!!" Aleppo by albateh
Aleppo Travel Guide: 757 reviews and 1,848 photos
Of all the towns of Syria it is Aleppo that leaves the profoundest impression upon the visitor.
Come and visit one of the oldest continuously inhabitant city in the world. Come and see: The ramparts, Bab Antakia, the al Bharamyah Mosque, the covered souks, the Great Mosque and neighboring building, the Citadel, the Jedeide district ("Old houses", St. George Cathedral, antique shops), the souk of coppersmiths, the al Mahmandar Mosque, the Armenian churches, the Archaeological Museum, the Public Gardens and Zoo, the University quarter, the al Firdows Madrassa, Bab Qinnesrin, the Bimarstan (asylum) Arghoun al Kamili, the Cotton souk (caravansaries and neighboring building), the al Atroush Mosque (and other buildings nearby) the Museum of Popular Art and Traditions (in the Ageckbash Palace).
Of course your stay in Aleppo should be at least three days, and also you can extend your stay to another three days to see some of the sight further afield: Qalaat Samaan, al Bara, Cyrrhus, al Thaura, Rasafah, etc.

These photos are great as always and also provide me with beautiful memories.
thanks for info :)
wonderful to spend beautýful evenýng ýn Damascus with you and Malena ... and to see the cýty through your eyes. Thank you for such a marvelous time. You are truly a good man.
The Citadel this is a place I would love to see. We have very similar souk to The covered Souk in Jeddah in Qabil St. I thin Halab and Jeddah are very similar. Umayad Mosque is also my next step after visiting Halab :o). Wait for me Rami& Fouad. Majed
