GTR-DVD-1249 - Sturdy walls and gates protect
the ancient historic city of Aleppo in Syria.
The narrow lanes in the old town, and its
many historic buildings, have retained all
the character and charm of a mediaeval
metropolis. The city has a flourishing
economy which is mainly due to its favourable
location at the junction of several important
trading routes.
In 1169 the Umayyade Mosque was re-built at
the command of the Zengid monarch, Nureddin,
but only its impressive forty five metre high
minaret has survived to the present day.
The Baits are true architectural gems of the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, noble
and often palatial-looking buildings that
once belonged to the city's elite classes.
Today Aleppo shines out once again in the
glory of its six thousand years of history
and continues to highlight its unique
significance as one of the most important
cities in the Orient.
