Damascus

Damascus is known as the world's oldest continually inhabited city; contributing fact to the innumerous fabulous stories that have been dedicated to her. Being one of the highlights of the Middle East, Damascus hosts architectural (and other) heritages from various eras and civilisations. The Old City still offers the ancient oriental charm time travellers are dreaming of. An upcoming modern sophistication makes Damascus an all that fascinating destination for contemporarily orientated voyagers, too.
