thanks for posting this video. i went to Damascus last year and it was an amazing trip. how was you're experience??

[Teresathetraveler]

@m3ju I loved it the Syrian people were really nice. How did you like it?

I love it the way you describe everything as cool and funky, when it's a 1000-year-old sultan's palace =). Here in Europe I was brought up with a sense of respect for things that are older than 100 years. I guess for Americans, you lack the perspective...

@Lostinthebigworld I'm Canadian - any building over 100 years old is historic to us, it's hard to wrap our minds around buildings that are thousands of years old

Dear that was amazing, i heard that there are 7 gates located in Old Damascus have you seen that, i came to know that Christianity has deep roots in Old Damascus especially old churches.
