The beauty of Nablus is devastatingly...
The beauty of Nablus is devastatingly heartbreaking...this place with its ancient history and built up by the Ummayads, Mamluks and the Ottomans in the style of Damascus with its beautiful water fountains and arches and old stone houses with courtyards at the center should make it a tourist hotspot, with hotels and cafes and guesthouses set in the traditional houses in the old city. Instead it is abandoned, devoid of any real tourism, the old stone buildings are derelict, graffiti adorns the walls of buildings that have a longer history than most countries. Nablus should be like Fes or Istanbul, instead it is a ghost town with just some echoes of former glory. No one wants to invest to create a future for this place when an Army can come in at any moment and destroy everything in their path (and do) #PalestineChronicles
