This second edition of Bradt's Syria is the clear market frontrunner, offering more detailed first-hand information on sites, cultural, historical and social background, accommodation and restaurants than any other guidebook. In addition to the country's impressive historical sites, such as the Roman caravan city of Palmyra and the Crusader castle of Crac des Chevaliers, it incorporates walking and trekking areas, wildlife and other environmental issues, while amusing snippets from literature, local anecdotes and sayings help to stimulate a genuine interest and understanding of Syria's people and the land in which they live.
  • By far the most in-depth guide to Syria on the market
  • Unparalleled coverage of the capital Damascus with the most information on the Old City and the Great Umayyad Mosque
  • A whole chapter on the Christian villages of the Qalamoun Mountains
  • More information than any other guide on the Euphrates, the desert and Bedouin culture
  • In-depth informative coverage of the Forgotten Cities, or Dead Cities, the extraordinary ruins to the south and west of Aleppo
  • Unique to Bradt - place names and useful phrases are written in both English and Arabic
  • Every chapter begins with an enlightening proverb to start the journey on a good-humoured note: 'Better to ride a dung beetle than to tread on soft carpets', 'Climb like a cucumber, fall like an aubergine'
  • Written by an author with 30 years' experience in the Middle East, who lives part-time in Damascus
