Peaceful times in Aleppo by busylady

Peaceful times in Aleppo

We had a fabulous holiday in Syria in 2008 so I thought I'd share some of the memories of that once beautiful country. The people were so friendly, welcoming and glad to share their country with tourists. I can't bear to see the horrific devastation of people's homes, lives and livelihoods on the news each night. I pray for a solution to this terrible war.
Nice to see a before capture. When will this all end for these people dreadful scenes to witness.

Lovely picture ....it's a horrible situation in every way and I can connect with some of your feelings after 10 days in Cairo. ...the people we met were just as you describe the Syrian people. I pray for peace also and so good to have your picture in mind. Thanks for sharing.

So poignant to see this - how horrid for those who must live there now. And for those who have lost so much.

Lovely shot and so sad to see what is happening to it now.

An archaeologist friend of mine has been on many archaeological digs in Aleppo in the past.
