Summary
[edit]DescriptionDamascus western Citadel wall 0361.jpg |
English: Note the statue of Saladin between the two towers. At the northwestern edge of what one may call the old town there is a walled area of roughly 150 x 200 meters. It was erected in 1078 by the Seljuks, a Turkish people, using stone taken from the walls of the city. It has a moat, but unlike any other citadel in Syria does not lie on higher ground, but is level with the city. The citadel has been overhauled several times. I always found it closed, and all I show here are pictures of the exterior, mainly the northern wall, which is curved. Across a road from it there are houses along a rivelet, the Baniyas Stream. On some pictures I show just those houses. On some I even wander off further, into a small ecological garden between that stream and the somewhat wider Barada River. |
