EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, captured in 1847, offers a glimpse into the rich history and beauty of Damascus, the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world. The photograph, titled "Damascus: The River Barrada, the Ancient Pharpar," showcases the picturesque Barrada River as it winds its way through the heart of the Syrian capital. The crystal-clear waters reflect the ancient stone buildings and intricate architectural details that line the riverbanks. Damascus, located in modern-day Syria, has a storied past that dates back over 10,000 years. The city has been a crossroads of cultures and civilizations, including the Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs, and Ottomans. This rich history is evident in the city's stunning architecture, which blends elements of various influences. The Barrada River, also known as the Pharpar, has played a crucial role in Damascus' history. It provided the city with water for irrigation and drinking, and its banks were once lined with gardens and orchards. The river was also an important source of transportation, connecting Damascus to the Mediterranean Sea. This photograph, taken over 170 years ago, offers a rare glimpse into Damascus' past. The city has undergone significant changes since then, but the Barrada River remains an essential part of its identity. Today, the river is still used for irrigation and provides a source of recreation for the people of Damascus. The ancient stone buildings and architectural details that line the riverbanks continue to captivate visitors from around the world, making Damascus a must-see destination for anyone interested in history, culture, and beauty.
