then Homs and moves to the coastal strip at Tartous and
Lattakia, then to to Hama, the city of norias and Apamea,
the city that
slept for long centuries under the ruins of earthquakes and the soil
of years until it resurrected at the end of the twentieth century, then
Aleppo which is one of the oldest cities of the world.
The camera moves to the banks of the Euphrates which are rich in
archaeological sites thousands of years old, and from Deir Ezzor the
tour goes to Palmyra the bride of the desert, but it does not end by
returning to Damascus, from Damascus the tourist leaves to enjoy the
antiquities of Bosra, Soueida and Kanawat in southern Syria.
The film includes scenes from the folk souks with the
distinguished oriental fragrance, and other scenes from modern Syria.
In every phase of the tour the tourist will be an honored guest in one
of Cham Hotels which combines the modernity and the oriental spirit at
the same. |
