Damasco, qualche foto

Unfortunately a nasty business happened. One more time.
I lost all photos of Lebanon, at least you had a little bit of them in previous articles, and all those one took in southern Syria. I have very few of Damascus, made in the last days: I hope you’ll like them.

This is the city just after sunset. Top left, illuminated with gold, you can see the Great Umayyad Mosque:

A mosque along the “Straight street“, a former Roman “cardo maximus”, at the end of which now stands the Christian Quarter:
