Geocache Description:

Easy to find Cache in the middle of Damascus

Einfach zu findender Cache in der Stadtmitte von Damascus.


This is the first Cache in Damascus, the third one in whole Syria. The little cache resides at the outer wall of the citadel of Damascus, one of the most significant Muslim fortresses. At the south of the citadel there is the "Al Hamedieah Market", one of the most beautiful and most spectacular markets of Damascus. At the end of the Market the "Ummayad Mosque" is being found.

Dies ist der erste Cache in Damaskus, der dritte in ganz Syrien. Der kleine Cache liegt an der Außenmauer der Zitadelle von Damaskus, eine der bedeutendsten muslimischen Befestigungswerke. Südlich der Zitadelle liegt die "Hamedieah", der wohl schönste und eindruckvollste Markt Damaskus'. Am Ende des Markts befindet sich die "Omayyadenmoschee".
