Exploring Middle East #1
By Paul | November 30, 2006
I decided to name this new child like this, because the photos likely show different places and occasions. Therefore finding a right header won’t sqeeze my tortured brain too much. Anyway have fun with a couple of interesting pictures.
This photo of an gas-station near Latakkia is a legendary one, because it contains so much Syria. Notice the “beware of fire” symbol and the service man, who is fueling our service bus, while smoking gently a cigarette. You rarely witness a situation like this one in Germany.
Nothing special to say about this one. Just the typical set of colors you will encounter, when travelling through Syria. Blue Sky, sand-colored stones and houses.
This photo has been shoot, while travelling on the Homs-Damascus Road. You are seeing محردة (Maharda – thanks to Aloshi). A small settlement in the north of Hama. I also have very interesting photos from Hama. I will post it soon.
Some sort of refinery or factory. I am not sure because I was not the one who took this picture.
This could be Homs or Aleppo. Very green by the way. More frequently seen in the western area of Syria.
It writes ….Haleb (حلب )medina (مدينة)…. which means the …city of Aleppo… this is all I can read for now.
This architecture most likely something the french colonizers brought to Syria once. I have no idea I´m just guessing.
Using a taxi in Aleppo. Nice weather all the time.
The students from Egypt liked dance. Very nice fellows.
