    Visiting the Souks

    Posted by andrewandlj 26 November 2010

    The souks (undercover markets) of Aleppo are truly magical. Colourful soap stalls sit next to huge sacks of coffee and walnuts. There are delicious sweet treats to sample and fine fabrics to marvel at. Unforgettable.

    In the centre of Aleppo by the Great Mosque.
