Damascus Souq, Syria

The Azem Palace, Damascus.

Damascus' second most important building is this dramatic 18th century palace of banded layers of sandstone, limestone and black basalt, a popular Mamaluk style of construction. The Azem palace interior is superbly ornate but also offers rooms with mannequins themed to different traditional occasions such as weddings or parties from that period.
