Do you know that Syria in the early twentieth century and under the ottoman empire had the third of it's population as Christians😮 , and after European christian colonization carried out by french in Syria and in Lebanon and Britain in Palestine, which decomposed the ottoman empire, now christians in Syria reduced from 33% of population to just 5% and in Lebanon from 66% as a majority to 33% and Palestine from 10 % before Israeli occupation 1948 to less than 2% of the population. Do you know before American occupation of Iraq 2003 the christians were 4 times their number now😮? Christians were 25% of all Arab region population in the early 20th century and under the ottoman empire, now christians are just 5% of the Arab region population 😮. That proves strongly the christians lived much better under Islam empires for 1300 years , and their matters deteriorated only after European christian colonization and american infringement in the region 😮
As an American I want to say I am sorry for all what you have been through because of our government. The people in America love you and wish you peace and happiness. Thank you Mark!
Merci pour votre commentaire, effectivement le peuple américain a été berné par l état profond dont L AIPAC qui contrôle votre sénat et qui ne travaille certainement pas pour le bien être du peuple américain. Libérez vous de ces êtres maléfiques.
Syria is a symbol of resilience. If you want to learn rebuilding from scratch, look no further than Syria. Thanks Mark for taking us through the streets of Damascus and bringing the taste of Syria!🙏

The mosque was unlike anything I have ever seen. Just beautiful. Never saw ice cream being made like that. That's real food, not like the junk we get in states. 🌻
As a Syrian man from Aleppo who has spent more than 25 years of my life outside Syria, these episodes brought tears to my eyes. One day we will return to Syria to build a greater and more beautiful future for our beloved Syria.
Oh Mark! What a series we are having at present. The name Damascus itself is nostalgic and takes one back to history ... Hope the war in Syria is over and all back to Normal...Syrians are one of the best people Ive interacted with.... They dont deserve war.. (In fact no one)

@@MarkWiens what Rami told about Umayyad mosque history all are not clear because if you go more historian then you'll see 80% story about the mosque has misconception. We all know these mosque continuing 1300 years ago. But there's no clear signs that there was thing like church or anything else. It was some west historians who written that these,those etc designs are church design. But reality is you can watch those architecture in even new mosques that clearly. So don't go wrong with the words of brokers
Wow! Don't want this Syrian food series to end! Amazing people and hospitality of Syria. They deserve to get their due share of respect and proaperity from the global community.

I never watch the media, or the news, as I know that incredible countries such as Syria & Lebanon, etc; are so often "intently" painted in a very negative light, but in absolute "truth", when you make a real life personal visit to such countries, you quickly come to see, that the media was very wrong. Syria oh Syria, how I love you & your amazing, sweet, very welcoming & hospitable peoples. The "peoples" are what makes Syria so very special. They're some of the world's genuinely friendliest. From the rich history, to the beautiful culture, to the most incredible foods & such a deliciously varied cuisine, to the beautiful historic architecture, the gorgeous streets, old accommodation & scenery abound & so much more, are some of the "many" reasons, why a visit to Syria will never ever disappoint. You are such an unfairly "underrated" country yet you shouldn't be whatsoever. I love the saying, "You will never ever go hungry in Syria". And I will add, that you will never get bored/run out of foodie choices, with the amazing selection of high quality food on offer abound. This was very enjoyable viewing, so much so, that I will watch multiple times over. I wish all the lovely people of Syria, ongoing peace for the future & only the very best that this life has to offer.🙏
Spot on! I was in the region for nearly 18 months studying at the American University of Beirut 12 years ago, it was truly an unforgettable experience! Lebanon,like Syria is stunningly gorgeous and same goes for the people and their first class gastronomy ! I have to say, they beat the French, the Italians, the Spanish, the Turks, the Greeks. I got to visit Damascus, Aleppo and Latakia. I enjoyed every moment of that trip and the kindness of the Syrian people, so similar to the Lebanese! I must go back! I’m disgusted by our Western governments and how they brought war and chaos to Syria, Lebanon and Palestine! Thank you Mark for your Syrian tour! We followed your Lebanon’s tour every bit of the way and we’ll be with you on your Syrian tour!
Thank you for your beautiful words. I hope that all the war and problems in Syria will end. Seeing you visiting us is always welcome. Everyone is always welcome in Syria
According to Islamic narration this is the city Damascus , where Jesus peace unto him shall return, the eastern minaret of the main mosque he will descend here
Thank you so much for showing us amazing Syria and it's heritage, delicious foods and ancient sites. I wish that Naranj restaurant is in Tokyo😋 - ❤ from Japan 🎌
Eu amo a culinária do Oriente Médio, não imagina que a Síria tinha uma culinária tão apetitosa, conheço muitos pratos, aqui no Brasil adoramos a culinária árabe. Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷 🇧🇷

So as a person that admires & appreciates fine arts, architecture, historical events, & crafts, this episode is very special and fascinating. The chapel's pillars and ceilings are so beautiful as well as the shrines & courtyards. What a well documented treasure Mark displayed and captured a past to present aspect of this majestic city. This is a side of Syria we Americans don't see notice other than the military presence & humanitarian crisis. So I highly appreciated this episode bringing us the beauty and contrasting the quality value of this ancient colorful collections of Syrians majestic monuments. Wishing you safe travels and blessings always!! Cheers!! 🥑🍯🍦☕🍵

Thanks, Mark for that video, You made me see Syria which my Grandmother told me about how beautiful it was when she went there in the 1960's -1970's and how public people were kind. I always wanted to visit but couldn't because of the war there.

amazing series , showing not just the rich and tasty types of foods in Syria but showing the great culture and civilized face of the Syrian people. Thank you , Mark from the bottom of our hearts , you are just a pure soul and great human being.
I’m another Norwegian who’s totally convinced that the best food and cooking I had in my life was in the Near East: Lebanon and Syria. It was after my trip to the region that I realized how poor is European cooking, even the Italians don’t come anywhere near! Does anyone know where our gothic cathedrals’ architecture like Notre Dame or the Duomo of Florence or St Paul cathedral in London were taken from? 98% of Europeans are clueless, we think it’s Roman or Greek, but that’s wrong! We took it from the first Syrian cathedral called Alba Louzé . Many British historians wrote about it: Diane Blake’s book ‘What we stole from the Sarazins’. Thank you Mark! Thank you Syria!
Mark this video is one of your best videos. I would argue the bests by far. It shows your open-minded sprit and your humanity.

Syrian cuisine may the best and most underrated food in the world. So much variety in its ingredients. Some of my favorite dishes: pumpkin cooked in a lamb tomato stock seasoned with dried mint. Wrapped grape leaves with whole cloves of garlic served with a ground lamb and tomato sauce. Lamb dumplings in a yogurt sauce served with fried cilantro, tomato, and garlic garnish. That’s not even getting into the incredible variety of desserts.
It's so heartwarming to see such a beautiful culture surviving after a prolonged war. Your guide is so lovely and personable and all the cooks and restaurateurs. Great video, Mark🫶
This country and its people have been through soo much and yet look at them. Hearts open and smile on their faces. Cheers to you mark for this video and cheers to you ya souryian

I made this comment in your first video but it's worth it to make it again. What makes Syrian food so special isn't just the talent of the chefs, the ancient recipes, the unique flavours and combinations, but also the fact that Syrian food is all from Syria. All the meat, fruit, and vegetables are local, they are not imported from Iraq, Turkey, or Europe, or wherever. This means the ingredients are super fresh, non-GMO, organic, and everything you eat came only an hours drive away at most. That's why Syrian food is the best!

Do you know that Syria in the early twentieth century and under the ottoman empire had the third of it's population as Christians😮 , and after European christian colonization carried out by french in Syria and in Lebanon and Britain in Palestine, which decomposed the ottoman empire, now christians in Syria reduced from 33% of population to just 5%
and in Lebanon from 66% as a majority to 33%
and Palestine from 10 % before Israeli occupation 1948 to less than 2% of the population.
Do you know before American occupation of Iraq 2003 the christians were 4 times their number now😮?
Christians were 25% of all Arab region population in the early 20th century and under the ottoman empire, now christians are just 5% of the Arab region population 😮.
That proves strongly the christians lived much better under Islam empires for 1300 years , and their matters deteriorated only after European christian colonization and american infringement in the region 😮

Syria oh Syria, how I love you & your amazing, sweet, very welcoming & hospitable peoples. The "peoples" are what makes Syria so very special. They're some of the world's genuinely friendliest.
From the rich history, to the beautiful culture, to the most incredible foods & such a deliciously varied cuisine, to the beautiful historic architecture, the gorgeous streets, old accommodation & scenery abound & so much more, are some of the "many" reasons, why a visit to Syria will never ever disappoint.
You are such an unfairly "underrated" country yet you shouldn't be whatsoever.
I love the saying, "You will never ever go hungry in Syria".
And I will add, that you will never get bored/run out of foodie choices, with the amazing selection of high quality food on offer abound.
This was very enjoyable viewing, so much so, that I will watch multiple times over.
I wish all the lovely people of Syria, ongoing peace for the future & only the very best that this life has to offer.🙏
Spot on! I was in the region for nearly 18 months studying at the American University of Beirut 12 years ago, it was truly an unforgettable experience! Lebanon,like Syria is stunningly gorgeous and same goes for the people and their first class gastronomy ! I have to say, they beat the French, the Italians, the Spanish, the Turks, the Greeks. I got to visit Damascus, Aleppo and Latakia. I enjoyed every moment of that trip and the kindness of the Syrian people, so similar to the Lebanese! I must go back! I’m disgusted by our Western governments and how they brought war and chaos to Syria, Lebanon and Palestine!
Thank you Mark for your Syrian tour! We followed your Lebanon’s tour every bit of the way and we’ll be with you on your Syrian tour!

I’m another Norwegian who’s totally convinced that the best food and cooking I had in my life was in the Near East: Lebanon and Syria. It was after my trip to the region that I realized how poor is European cooking, even the Italians don’t come anywhere near!
Does anyone know where our gothic cathedrals’ architecture like Notre Dame or the Duomo of Florence or St Paul cathedral in London were taken from? 98% of Europeans are clueless, we think it’s Roman or Greek, but that’s wrong! We took it from the first Syrian cathedral called Alba Louzé . Many British historians wrote about it: Diane Blake’s book ‘What we stole from the Sarazins’.
Thank you Mark! Thank you Syria!

I made this comment in your first video but it's worth it to make it again. What makes Syrian food so special isn't just the talent of the chefs, the ancient recipes, the unique flavours and combinations, but also the fact that Syrian food is all from Syria. All the meat, fruit, and vegetables are local, they are not imported from Iraq, Turkey, or Europe, or wherever. This means the ingredients are super fresh, non-GMO, organic, and everything you eat came only an hours drive away at most. That's why Syrian food is the best!

I love the minute 4:30 when Mark passes through the picture of the vice president the dictator bashar el-kalb LOL, he looks to the pictures and ignores it, they take him from this street to show him his picture, but Mike's response were incredible, he ignored the dictator's picture and walked away. I wonder why they didn't have the president's picture Vladimir Putin?
We love this series of Syria videos! Can't wait to see more. Also Rami is amazing! He seems such a friendly guy. I am glad he is your tour guide. Can't wait to see your next videos!
It is kind of you ❤
What an eye-opener! Amazing to see Damascus.
Syrian food is literally from another world ❤❤
I’ve eaten some of the best and freshest food on Earth in that corner of the world 😋whether in Syria, Jordan or Lebanon, the craftsmanship, the history, the freshness and definitely the taste are hardly matched anywhere else 🤤
Sad that the region is plagued with instability and wars 🙏❤

Hi Mark, thanks for representing Syria with its great ancient history along with the best food in the world. It used to one of the tourist hubs in the world and hopefully it will return the same way.
I really miss Syria i used to visit it with my family when i was kid, i am happy to see that it is recovering back from the previous events
Syria is the cradle of civilizations ❤ 🇸🇾
Syria is a country of civilization. Despite all the fatigue, it is still beautiful. It made me want very much to visit it😍😍
im moroccan and this made me wanna go there so bad, everything looks fantastic
U welcome in syria just come
Thank you Mark, you going there and showing us the people of Syria means a lot to me. I know the country has been at war for a long time, it's sucks. You've shown the world that despite that, the people live on and are awesome with AWESOME food ! To the People of Syria , the American people do not hate you and do not wish harm on any of you we understand that people do not always get along, I wish the world was a more peaceful place. Thank you Mark for your COURAGE and your resolve brother ! ❤❤👍👍👏👏
So if American nations don't hate Syrians...so let America get over the occupation for the north east of Syria ...go out of Syria ...
Syria is Heart of our World and Civilizations
الاجانب كان بنظرهم انو سوريا أرهب لكن اليوتيوبر نقل لهم الواقع سوريا جميلة وشعبها لطيف وطعامها من اجمال الاطعامه في العالم نعم انها سوريا

Very beautiful Ummayad Mosque ❤ from Indonesia. I wish peace in the world and try delicious Syrian culinary.
I would love to go to that mosque. It looks unbeleivable. Not a religious person by any means, but it looks amazing.

هذا البلد الجميل الغنيّ بالحضارة و الفن و الثقافة حاولوا تدميره و مسح ملامحه و لكن رغم ذلك هذا الشعب الرائع و الودود أنا متأكد بأنه سيتخطى كل الصعاب و الأزمات و ستعود سوريا بلد الياسمين و الورد الدمشقي مرة أخرى إن شاء الله شكراً مارك على هذه الرحلة المليئة بالحنين ❤

Man this video brings back memories and makes me so proud to be Syrian. Thank you Mark for the remarkable representation. I wish you could have visited and seen Syria prior to 2011. I hope you consider and extended visit to try out food outside of Damascus aswel. I promise Syria has way to much to offer outside of Damascus
No matter how many years pass and how far we are from our original homeland, we still feel nostalgia and longing for our country, Syria
Now that I am 52 years old, I still take my wife and children to show them my house where I was born, but the last time we did not find it because the war destroyed it.

Do you know that Syria in the early twentieth century and under the ottoman empire had the third of it's population as Christians😮 , and after European christian colonization carried out by french in Syria and in Lebanon and Britain in Palestine, which decomposed the ottoman empire, now christians in Syria reduced from 33% of population to just 5%
and in Lebanon from 66% as a majority to 33%
and Palestine from 10 % before Israeli occupation 1948 to less than 2% of the population.
Do you know before American occupation of Iraq 2003 the christians were 4 times their number now😮?
Christians were 25% of all Arab region population in the early 20th century and under the ottoman empire, now christians are just 5% of the Arab region population 😮.
That proves strongly the christians lived much better under Islam empires for 1300 years , and their matters deteriorated only after European christian colonization and american infringement in the region 😮😮😢😮
Mark, thank you for the video, I watched the first part to your Syrian visit yesterday and was hoping for more.
