About Damascus
Syria’s capital and the world’s oldest continuously inhabited city. It has been under variable rules through the ages; Aramean, Byzantine, Roman, and Arabian. This city was once the capital of an empire which stretched from Indus to the Pyrnees. Damascus is very rich in its archeological sites; the Omayad mosque, the old city with all its contents, the national museum where there is a superb collection from the Islamic art and other.
LAND MARKS OF OLD DAMASCUS
The Walls and the Gates:
The Wall was built in the Roman era with large, tapered stones. It was oblong in shape, designed in the manner of Roman military camps, cities, and fortifications. There are seven gates in it: Bab Sharqi, Bab al-Jabieh, Bab Keissan, Bab al-Saghir, Bab Tuma, Bab al-Jeniq, and Bab al-Faradiss. The main thoroughfare traversed the city from Bab al-Jabieh to Bab Sharqi; on both sides there were Corinthian columns, and across it numerous triumphal arches.
The Ommayad Mosque
This great Mosque stands at the heart of the Old City
at the end of Souq al-Hamidiyeh.It was built by the Omayyad Caliph al-Walid
ibn Abdul Malek in 705 A.D. when Damascus was the capital of the Arab
Islamic Empire.
When al-Walid decided to erect an impressive mosque suited to the grandeur
of the Arab state 'whose like was never built before, nor will ever be built
after' as he is reported to have said, he negotiated with the Christian
community of Damascus, and undertook to construct a new church for them (St.John's)
and allot several pieces of land for other churches, if they relinquished
their right to their part of the Mosque.They agreed.It took ten years and
eleven million gold dinars, as well as a huge number of masons, artists,
builders, carpenters, marble-layers, and painters to complete.It became an
architectural model for hundreds of mosques throughout the Islamic world.
The Azem Palace:
This also stands at the heart of the Old City, on the
southern side of the Omayyad Mosque, and very close to it.It is an
astonishing example of a Damascene house, where the simple, almost
primitive, exterior contrasts rather sharply with the beauty and
sophistication of the interior.Here one finds a sense of space, a wealth of
polychrome stone, splendid marble, cascading fountains, and fragrant
flowers.The palace was built in the mid-eighteenth century for the Governor
of Damascus.
The Damascus Citadel:
The only fortress in Syria built on the same level as the city, it does not top a hill or a mountain like all other castles and citadels.It was erected by the Seljuks in 1078 A.D. with masonry taken from the city wall, and turned into a heavily-fortified citadel surrounded by walls, towers, a moat and trenches.Inside, they built houses, baths, mosques, and schools; it was a city within a city.At the height of Crusader raids and attacks, it was used as residence for the Sultans of Egypt and Syria such as Nureddin, Saladin, and al-Malek al-Abdel, whence they supervised military operations against the Crusaders.
The Souqs
The old covered souqs of Damascus have a unique flavour you can savour with eyes closed.As you walk about in the warm darkness of these streets with their fragrant scents, spices, and colourful merchandise spilling out of the shops onto the pavements, you enter the strange world of exotic legends.Most prominent of these souqs are:
Souq Al Hamidiyeh :
Follows a straight line from the west (where Bab al-Nasr
used to be) to the Omayyad Mosque.It dates back to 1863, to the rule of the
Ottoman Sultan Abdul-Hamid, after whom the souq was called.It is covered
with high iron vaulting, so old that sun rays filter through it into the
darkness of the souq.The shops here sell everything from tissues to
leather-work, from sweets and ice-cream to exquisite handmade brocades,
mosaic, and copper inlaid with silver.
Souq Midhat Basha:
(The Long Souq): Founded by the governor of Damascus Midhat Pasha in 1878.It stands above the Roman 'Street Called Straight' which used to traverse the city from Bab al-Jabieh to Bab Sharqi, and runs parallel to souq al-Hamidiyeh, with numerous side-souqs separating them.
Souq Al Harir:
Founded by Darwish Pasha in 1574.Its entrance is at the end of souq al-Hamidiyeh just outside the Omayyad Mosque.Its shops are filled with local embroidered cloths, perfume essence, and tailoring and sewing requisites.Here, too, a number of old khans have been converted into shops, best known for their cloaks, capes, mantles, shawls, and 'galabiyas'.
Souq Al Bzourieh:
Extends between Souq Midhat Pasha and the Omayyad
Mosque and is famous for its quaint little fruit, medicinal herbs, and
confectionery.
In the middle of this souq stands a bath (one of the two hundred public
baths) which has been in continuous use from the twelfth century.
