Syria - July 2009 (1) : The Old Town of Aleppo & Public Park

Salam mina san!
In this post and the next two posts I will talk about my trip to Syria this summer, or , I will let the pictures talk instead of me!^^

Aleppo, my city, is located in the far north of Syria. And to reach there, heading from Jordan, we have to pass through other five main cities of Syria.

Dar'a (border city),

Damascus, the capital city:


Homs,

Hama:

"Al'asi river"

And finally,

Aleppo!

Aleppo!


Aleppo!


Aleppo!


Aleppo!

(five Aleppos are enough):D

Yes, it's Aleppo, アレッポ, حلب
And as AlBuhturi said:

سَلِ الحَلَبِيّ عَنْ حَلَبٍ وَعَنْ تِرْكَانِهِ حَلَبَا

I say: Ask the Aleppo-jin about Aleppo...

I used to play in this dome with my brother when we were children,
Say your name loudly and the dome will repeat it many times, I discovered later that this is called "Echo"!
