''My first blog''

I have lived in Damascus for 7years. I like their schools because girls and boys were not taking same schools together. I had a lot of fun when i was there. I used to play soccer,that's why i,m fan of the world soccer-cup. I liked going to that mall on the picuter above. Its fun being there, especially when your with friends and family.Damascus has an enormous number of historical sites dating to many periods of the city’s history. Since the city has been built up with every occupation, it has become almost impossible to excavate all the ruins that lie up to 8 feet below the modern street level. In spite of being called part of the “axis of evil,” and tourists are few, Damascus may be one of the friendliest places one can visit with taxi drivers inviting visitors into their homes for glasses of tea and passers-by yelling “you are welcome here.” Damascus has all the amenities of any large city including excellent restaurants serving Mideastern and European style food, shopping in traditional souks and modern malls, one of the world’s great museums, the Syrian National Museum, and even a moderate night life. Visitors have described Damascus in many different ways. But whatever words one chooses, there is little doubt that Damascus leaves a mark on the soul and imagination. Damascus becomes more than just another city, Damascus becomes a friend.
