- Travel video about destination Damascus in Syria.
Damascus is the capital of Syria and is a symbol of culture in the Near East. A hundred kilometres from the Mediterranean coast, the strategically located city was once the capital of the Umayyad.Cannons, the busts of various presidents and military vehicles are displayed in the large courtyard of the Takiyeh Mosque, an ancient Dervish monastery complex. Built in 1554 and designed by Ottoman master architect, Sinan, it also includes an adjoining inn for the numerous pilgrims who travelled to Mecca. Damascus has always been much prized: by the pharaohs and the Babylonian monarch, Nebukadnezar, and later, Alexander The Great. Then came Persian, Roman and Islamic emperors followed by the Crusaders and Mongols. The Kalaa Citadel is situated on the periphery of the old town that was once surrounded by huge walls. It was from here that Saladin fended off the attacks of the Crusaders. The Romans built a fort here that was constantly extended with impressive walls and towers and located directly outside the city wall, the River Barada was also of strategic importance. Although the Mongols destroyed the inner buildings, the fortress walls survived. The Suq is an important part of every Islamic city, a market that originated in ancient times. Thousands of shops in numerous interconnected lanes form the commercial heart of Damascus. In the Gold Suq everything glitters, bracelets, rings and even a large variety of kitchen utensils. Damascus has for thousands of years been a place desired by the powerful. Yet it has managed to survive and is still the most beautiful capital city in the Near East.

I v e been to Damascus before Damascus Oregon Not to the capital of Syria
i love my india
This place will be a ruinous heap very soon.
this is the fairy tale that the distorted Bible tell and no one believe in it lol
😂😂😂😂
Firas Shakosh It is a Ruinous Heap already sir...the gates of Heaven are still open for you to go through them...all you must do is repent and believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for you and He is your savior! God bless you.
good luck with that
@@iWh15tl3 you teach us about Christ?😂
Christianity was mainly presented to the world through Syria
The bible prophecy is about Aram and the Aramic people not the Arabs
it which already happened long ago and their old city of Damascus is cover by layers of sands thus is indeed in ruins
The current Damascus is still standing fine and will continue to do so
For its very possible that Christ will return in Damascus first as believed by many
It looks like the 7 century wow this people and place are 1400 years back. They had great culture before Islam which ruined everything.
yeah religion does that usually
And After Islam they were the leaders of the World during the Ummyad Caliphate and the Abased Caliphate.. That Video didn't focus on the Islamic history when it is taking taking the Major place! ;)
this ruins was built after islam and thier owners are muslims i dont why people make political commets like that
Islam build all of that .... all those beautiful buildings come back to different Islamic periods .... before secular dictatorships and successive military coups ruled Syria ... Syria was haven on earth ...
@@Fle-2870 modern rogue.
Get study yourself and your Islam.
Started with looting robbery murders since birth of Islam towards East first and to West.
Converting natives if not mass mass murdering.
Converting temple to mosque.charches to mosque and tombs.
Get done your 🧬 DNA test to whom you are belongs.
Study the birth place of profhet Mohammad and his ancestors who were they are?
If you have guts come and see in modern india what your fallowers and rulers did here . We kept everything secret.
In india 32 crores of islamic fallowers thair DNA belongs to Saraswat Brahman.not only in India totally in East everyone converted from hindhu.buddist . Jain . Sikhs and Christian.
