I doubt very much whether this looks like this today, after all the terrible war destruction of this once beautiful city. This was a splendid (mainly archaeological) museum built in 1931 & I did enjoy my stay in Aleppo, the year before the start of the awful civil war.

A group of old friends, their cars parked alongside them, gather around the only open shop in this part of Aleppo's old market, heavily damaged by fire and shelling
Slight morning fog, remnants of yesterdays fire, some clouds and sunny spells, and many more bombs are expected in Aleppo.
Das Bild habe ich vor etwa zehn Jahren aufgenommen.
Wie es heute dort aussieht, wage ich mir nicht vorzustellen.
I took this picture almost ten years ago.
I don't even dare to imagine how this site does look alike today.

I managed to visit one of the many hammams in Aleppo and notice that the full package ( Bath, massage and scrub down + drinks) is double the price than most Hammams in Damascus. This particular one was recently renovated and it is fully timber cladded which gives the different feel to the typical Hamamms.

This is the old bazaar in Aleppo's historic center. Most of the market has been damaged by the conflict, but some merchants are slowly starting to return
Especie eminentemente forestal, es posible sin embargo encontrarlo puntualmente en zonas abiertas desforestadas, como ocurre en esta imagen, tomada en los badlands del río Fardes, en la que aparecen manchas jóvenes de pinares cultivados de pino carrasco (Pinus halepensis). En la próxima Sierra Nevada alcanza altitudes que pueden considerarse récord para nuestra península (casi los 2.500 m sobre el nivel del mar).

An eminently forestry species, however, it is possible to find it occasionally in open deforested areas, as in this image, taken in the badlands of the Fardes River, in which young spots of cultivated pine forests of Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis) appear. In the next Sierra Nevada it reaches altitudes that can be considered record for our peninsula (almost 2,500 m above sea level).
Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis)
From the eastern Mediterranean area, this pine is the most resistant to dry conditions.
Is a fast growing tree to 50 ft (15 m - 20 m) and has a spreading crown. The soft, light green needles are 4 in (10 cm) long and are usually carried in pairs. The Cones are reddish brown and narrow conic, 5–12 cm (2.0–4.7 in).
In Portuguese "Pinheiro-de-Alepo" or "Pinheiro-francês"

I do not normally go to Old City at night in Aleppo but since Eid is near I anticipate that there will be alot of shops open after the break fasting. What I anticipated was true.
Bab Antakya is the entrance that I always take from my hotel to the Old City and obviously, it is fully lit and really love the ambiance in the Old City during Ramadhan.
Location : Old City, - Aleppo Syria.
"Monument" is a sculpture by the German-Syrian artist Manaf Halbouni. Three buses standing vertically on the rear of the vehicle, modelled on a road block built in the Syrian city of Aleppo. The work of art belongs to the Kunsthaus Dresden, where massive protests were caused by the xenophobic Pegida movement and the AfD on the occasion of its exhibition in front of Frauenkriche at the beginning of 2017.
With this project, Manaf Halbouni hopes that Aleppo will be rebuilt after the end of the civil war in Syria - like Dresden after the Second World War.
"Monument" ist eine Skulptur des deutsch-syrischen Künstlers Manaf Halbouni. Drei senkrecht auf den Hecks stehende Busse, nach dem Vorbild einer Straßensperre, die in der syrischen Stadt Aleppo errichtet worden war. Das Kunstwerk gehört dem Kunsthaus Dresden und hat dort anlässlich seiner Ausstellung vor der Frauenkriche Anfang 2017 massive Proteste, vor allem seitens der fremdenfeindlichen Pegida-Bewegung sowie der AfD hervorgerufen.
Manaf Halbouni verbindet mit dem Projekt die Hoffnung, dass Aleppo nach dem Ende des Bürgerkriegs in Syrien - wie Dresden nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg - wieder aufgebaut wird.
