my travel in Syria

by photonina - last update: Oct 12, 2006

Well, I guess you definitelly know that Syria has a great history and culture and if you even do not know much about it, it's so easy to get to know that by internet or books etc. So, I prefer to tell you about my own experiance guys, than to put here some "dry" data about the country. About my experiance and the stories I had there I'll put on my different pages (Damascus, Aleppo, Hama, Palmyra ect. pages)...

right now I just tell you briefly where I traveled and when:

I went to Aleppo first. spend there two days. then took bus directly to Damascus. I spend 3 days in Damas. After that went to Hama. from Hama I made daytrip to Krak, and next day I went to Palmyra via desert.
I spent one day and a night in Palmyra, in the morning I had camel riding and after having breakfast I went back to Damas.
From Damas I visited Deir Mar Musa monastery, where I stayed one night and next evening went back in Damas.
I left Damascus in 28th of December. First I wanted to go to Aleppo and spend one day there before crossing the border. But after I changed my mind and took direct bus from Damas to Ankara.
the point was that my Syria visa was ending.. and also I wanted to go back in Geo till 2006 :)
Anyway, I managed that... I arrived in Tbilisi (my homecity) at 22 pm of 31.12.05.
yeah! cheers!

 I was in that same 1952 Pontiac taxi in 2006. His son drives it now.

 I'm always happy to read good things said about Syria, your pages are really informative without that guide book mentality. Congratulations! My wish now is that I visited the Assaisins castle, looks magical....

 I have only been to Syria in summer, but it sounds nice to visit in winter too. Great photo!
