Barada Damascus Seraglio Serail Syria Syrian Waterway


EDITORS COMMENTS
Damascus, the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world, showcases its rich history and cultural heritage in this stunning photograph of Place du Serail, also known as Seraglio Square, and the entrance to the Barada River. Circa 1906, this image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past splendor of the Syrian capital. Place du Serail, located in the Old City of Damascus, was once the heart of the city's political and administrative life. The square is named after the Serail, or palace, which housed the Ottoman governors and their courts. The impressive architecture of the Serail, with its arches, domes, and intricate stonework, can be seen in the background of the photograph. The entrance to the Barada River, a vital waterway that has sustained Damascus for thousands of years, is located at the southern end of the square. The river, which originates in the Anti-Lebanon Mountains, has been a source of life and inspiration for the people of Damascus, providing water for agriculture, industry, and daily use. This photograph captures the essence of Damascus, a city where ancient history and modern life intertwine. The serene beauty of the Barada River, the grandeur of the Serail, and the bustling energy of the square all come together in this timeless image. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of the enduring spirit of Damascus and its people, who have weathered the test of time and continue to thrive in the heart of the Middle East.
