National Museum of Syria
Syria really was part of the cradle of civilisation. As such, a visit to
the National Museum west down the main Sharia Shoukri al-Quwatli is
well worth while for history buffs, and will help you contextualise the
ancient sites you visit in the country.The ticket office is on the road
itself, allowing access to a well-watered statue-dotted garden. Entry to
the museum itself is via the castelline main entrance – the main gate
of a 7th century desert palace recreated here, looking like a chess
piece with its chunky towers. The most famous exhibits are off to the
left, with finds from the classical eras – primarily Palmyra and Dura
Europus on the Euphrates.
