The Trip to Syria
We spent a day touring Damascus including shopping for Syrian tablecloths and visits to traditional Damascene houses, the Chapel of Ananias, the Ruqayya Mosque, the Mausoleum of Saladin, the Umayyad Mosque (said to be the third holiest site in Islam, which purportedly contains the tomb of John the Baptist), a Turkish hammam (bath), the souks, and a handicraft market.
