If you want good shawerma go to Al-Rayyan, located in Salhiyyeh any taxi would know it.
for a nice area with pubs and surprisingly good shops that import brands individually go to Bab Tooma.

You think your close and almost home free. But how wrong you are. You are never boarding that plane tomorrow. You will be stuck in Syria!

I remember going through this in 2006, definitely not fun. Hope they didn’t charge you crazy rates at the hotel.

It maybe the same kind of journey as NAT got to Syria 2 years back from Leabnon. We’ll surely be waiting for your comments on syria airport as well. BTW did u require any legal thing to get into syria ?
