syria has got to be by far one of the most beautiful countries i have had the pleasure of visiting, if u like history you will love syria. The streets of damascus have this wonderful vibe about them this sensual feeling you will embelish in the beautey that is syria, the people are very freindly shopping is very very cheap hotels are great and also ...

The only problem there is the traffic jams.
It's one of the most important and valuable cities in the whole wide world.Do you it is the oldest city in the world?and all the prophets had been there?
Do you know who built it?
It was said that the grand son of prophet Noah built it and the battle of Abel and Cane (Adam's sons)fought on its famous mountain.

syria is full of history and is just gorgeous. especially the ummayyad mosque.the people are very friendly and welcoming and the food is great.i recommend anybody who appreciates history to go there.
