"Okay, I will tell you the expedition's travel plan now!" Jin Bian snapped his fingers, and someone immediately sent a map to him, and Jin Bian spread the drawing on the table.
, said: "The place we are going to this time is right here!"
Kingpin pointed to the direction of the map, which fell in the area near Damascus! As early as the tenth century BC, when Damascus was the capital of the Kingdom of Armenia, people including the Babylonians, Egyptians, Hittites, Assyrians and Persians passed through
After many internal invasions by foreign enemies, Damascus was conquered by Alexander the Great.
But somewhere near the Pre-Lebanon Mountains, no one should invade its territory at will. It is called the "Holy Land of the Peoples of the Far East". This holy land was even known to the locals earlier than the Sumerian civilization.
But later it was lost in the long river of history and gradually disappeared!
The place Jinpin wanted to go this time was the ruins of the ancient city in the Holy Land in the far East. There were unknown treasures there, which Jinpin had always coveted, but he would never tell Guan Hengzhi, and Guan Hengzhi also
Knowing that inquiring was futile, the two tacitly chose not to talk about the purpose of their trip. They only discussed the route to this ancient city, how to form a team to set off, march, etc. The two discussed this for nearly a month.
Hour.
When they finally parted, Jin Bin said to Guan Heng: "For safety and convenience, each of us can bring two assistants. I will inform you of the departure time at that time. This expedition is a special trip. Please be sure to pay attention to those around you."
People keep secrets strictly!"
"In addition, when we get near Damascus, I have a friend who wants to join the expedition temporarily!" Jin Bin said: "Because he is the leader of the local indigenous gang and a big businessman. Moreover, this person has lived on the edge of the desert for a long time and is familiar with the road conditions.
and shortcuts are indispensable guides!”
"So this is an expedition team composed of three parties!" Guan Heng glanced at Jin and said: "If the other party brings two more assistants, our team will be nine people. Am I right?"
"Yes, you are right!" Jin Bing nodded and said: "Our expedition team is more manpower-savvy than expensive. If the personnel are selected properly, six people can be enough to cope with various emergencies. Otherwise, no matter how many people we bring,
It’s also a waste of life and a mistake!”
A few hours later, Damascus, the largest city and capital of Syria. It was once one of the earliest inhabited cities in the world, and the capital of the Umayyad Dynasty, the earliest hereditary dynasty in the Kingdom of Adi. It is known as the Garden of the Earth and the Paradise on Earth.
Today, Damascus still plays an alternate role of conquering and being conquered. It is still the cradle of people on the east coast of the Mediterranean and inland. For thousands of years, Damascus has been unyielding in the face of disasters and victories, and has become an iconic city in the Middle East.
Famous around the world!
Damascus is divided into two parts: the new city and the old city. The new and old cities are bounded by the Barada River. The old city is on the east bank of the river, and the new city is on the west bank of the river. The old city still retains the ancient Roman and Ati temples.
There are many scenic spots and historic sites in the Chinese period, which can be called the "City of Monuments".
The Straight Street that runs from east to west of the ancient city was the main street of the city in ancient Roman times. The main existing monuments are all on this street and its vicinity. Among them are the famous Umayyad Temple built in 705 AD;
The Caesar Gate and the ancient castle built in the 11th century AD are the pride of this historic city!
In addition, there is the extremely luxurious Azim Palace, which is also one of the highlights of Damascus. It was built by Assad Azim, the governor of Damascus in the mid-18th century. There are two huge palaces in the vast rectangular courtyard.
The pool, hall and its open-air parts are all decorated with marble, ceramic tiles and exquisite wood carvings, making them rich and colorful.
The four walls of the palace are carved with panels and famous verses and aphorisms of Arab scholars. There are also inlaid and gilded carvings in other places. The Hanman bathroom in the palace includes several small bathrooms with different temperatures. There is a yi lying in the palace.
A Hittite-style lion carved from igneous rock, this palace represents the top architectural level of the Abbasid Dynasty in the past. The palace is now the site of the Syrian Folk History Museum.
The Hamadi Market in the ancient city is a straight street. It has been the bustling place of Damascus since the ancient Silk Road flourished trade. At that time, there were countless shops of various kinds. Even after the war, prisoners of war and slaves from various countries were auctioned.
It was held on this street. In addition, next to the market, there was a courtyard-style house with a wooden and stone structure. It was the relic of the ancient "Silk Station". Before the powerful Tang Dynasty and the black-clothed Dashi fought that tragic war, that courtyard house
The architectural style is where merchants from Chang'an, Luoyang and other places in the Tang Dynasty came to trade!
When they came here, Jin Bin brought two of his capable subordinates, but Guan Heng was accompanied by the stone man Ben Grimm and Huang Santai! At first, Jin Bin didn't understand why Guan Heng still brought a fifteen.
With a six-year-old child by his side, when he witnessed Santai easily lifting a 200-capacity oil drum with one hand, the underground gang boss immediately shut his mouth and his two full
The men with thick faces almost dropped their jaws in shock!
At this moment, a group of six people have arrived at the market in Damascus and are strolling. Damascus, the original capital of Syria, is an ancient city. Its market is world-famous. Walking into it is like entering a complicated maze. You can go there
Things were very different after the 21st century. Many small markets were demolished, and rows of open-air cafes, small restaurants and newly built bars appeared on the original sites, serving fragrant tea or coffee.
Soft drinks and even shisha.
In the past, in Damascus, people with some financial strength preferred Western-style apartments. Therefore, the courtyard-style houses with a secluded country atmosphere have not been visited for a long time. However, nowadays, houses with traditional structures are once again popular.
With the revival boom, people often improve it into open-air cafes, and such cafes often inherit the fine traditions of mom-and-pop shops, so that every passerby can feel the hospitality of the owner.
The city of Damascus still retains thousands of old houses into the 21st century. They are not only the architectural treasures of the city, but also become one of the special landscapes of Damascus. These buildings still retain more than half of the buildings from the Ottoman period.
The building remains intact, with a solemn appearance and a magnificent interior. It can be called a masterpiece in the history of architecture.
Adjacent to the Umayyad Temple is the Hamidiya Market. It was first built in the Roman era and is famous for its long history and complete range of goods, including clothing, cloth, leather, silver and copper utensils and traditional handicrafts.
