Capital · Damascus
Syria, with its ancient capital Damascus, draws visitors and business travellers alike to a country shaped by millennia of trade and culture. The economy has historically centred on agriculture, textiles, and phosphate extraction, alongside a growing services sector. Travellers explore the remarkable old city of Damascus, the Roman ruins at Palmyra, and the medieval citadel dominating Aleppo's skyline. Shopping in the covered Souq al-Hamidiyya reveals the craft traditions Syria is celebrated for, including hand-woven brocade silk, inlaid woodwork, blown glass, and aromatic soaps from Aleppo.
