Damascus sept 2009 4855.jpg

view map

This is the Imaret of Sultan Suleiman, by the famous Sinan (visit my Turkey site to see lots of his works) or see the Tekkiye elsewhere in my Syria/Damascus galleries. This Imaret was built to provide visitors to the tomb of al-Arabi (which we'll visit next) - lying opposite - with food. It dates from 1552, I would gladly have visited it, but found it closed.
