Hi Yazanya. Can you recommend some good resturants in Damascus? I'll be going there soon. Thanks!
There are plenty of good places, but not a lot of varieties. My favorites are La Casa, old city (Italian), Gemini (steaks), Qasr oumaween (local in old city, nice setting mediocre food). I don't know what type of food you're looking for, so if you?re looking for something specific let me know.
I hope my reply isn?t too late. If you wish we can meet up for a dinner in one of these places. I?ll be in Syria till end of March.
Can you tell me what the name is of the city which once was called Antioch in Syria?
Are American tourists welcome in Syria?

Hi Elzeth
Antioch
if you mean ancient Antioch ad Orontes
it is called today
Antakya (Hatay) & since 1939 it is a part of Turkey ...
Antioch ad Orontes, founded by Seleucus I Nicator ~300 BC,its population soon reached half a million people.. St. Paul was there
Today there's a small museum with a fantastic collection of MOSAICS, i was lucky enough to visit a few times

Thank you for pointing that out, mat. I won't hold my breath waiting for an answer.
PM -
yes!!!!
in fact,when people hear you are an American you'll get an even warmer reception because so few Americans visit...
Thank you for the reply maxwell. I have recently returned from Jordan and everywhere I went people would thank me for coming. That was the greatest feeling, and it sound like the Syrians are just as nice.
