You don’t just enter the market to shop; you enter to hear the city speak. The aroma of coffee and spices wafts from behind the stalls, the gleam of brass under the ancient arches, and the colors of fruits and sweets create an open-air gallery of memories from the Levant.

The program does not solely focus on continuous shopping; it combines strolling through the markets, discovering ancient architecture, tasting traditional Damascene dishes, meeting artisans, and enjoying tea in a house or Arabic-style courtyard. The ancient city, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979, includes around 125 monuments from various historical eras and has been a significant center for crafts and traditional industries in the Middle Ages.
