Ancient Villages of Northern Syria

Clusters of old settlements reveal the shape of rural life.

This UNESCO World Heritage property is a group of sites across northwestern Syria, not one destination. Its status does not establish present access to individual villages.

Look for the remains of houses, presses and community buildings.
