Apamea

Apamea is considered as one of the unmissable highlights of Syria, if it weren’t for the unsurpassable magnificence of Palmyra. Apamea is like a condensed version of Zenobia’s pink sandstone desert city, but built in grey granite. The admission is SP150. Allowed at least 2 hours to wander along the Cardo.

If you join a day tour from Hama to Apamea and dead cities area. This is a must stop. The day tour may cost around SP2000 per car, including Apamea and a couple of dead cities.

Last visit to Apamea: Nov 2004
