World heritage site · Architectural Buildings · Flea Markets

Inhabited since ancient times and boasting a rich and turbulent history, Aleppo's rustic old town, historic mosques, and lively bazaars used to attract tourists from all over the world. Wandering the city's narrow alleyways, you could discover peaceful bathhouses, sample delicious local sweets and dishes, or browse covered marketplaces that sell colorful spices and traditional handicrafts. Unfortunately, since the civil war started in 2012, many mosques, mansions, souqs, and other historic sights were destroyed, and the faith of many others remains unknown as the fighting continues. Needless to say, tourism in Aleppo has suffered a near fatal blow by the conflict, taking a fascinating destination off the map for most foreign visitors.
