    • Start the tour by visiting the National Museum. Its visit provides an overview of the civilisations that have succeeded on Syrian soil. It contains statues, seals, jewellery, masks, mosaics, tablets and weavings from the most important sites in the country.
    • Proceed to Souk Al-Hamidiye, the most beautiful souk of Damascus. Its shops display all sorts of goods, especially clothes, fabrics, pastries and handicrafts.

    • Marvel at the Umayyad Mosque. Located in the heart of the Medina, the mosque is distinguished by its prayer room, its courtyard and its walls covered with mosaics.

    • Move to the El-Azem Palace. Not far from the Great Mosque, in the labyrinth of the souk is the palace El-Azem. It is considered the sumptuous model of the Damascene house.

    • Continue to the Saint Ananian Church. It is of particular importance because it is attached to the memory of Saint Paul. Before his conversion to Christianity, he had a vision here that blinded him for several days and gave him an unshakeable faith.

    • Head to Beirut.
