Al-Sharif Mosque
Best time to visit
Rano ujutro između 8 i 10 sati najmirnije je, jer je vrućina još podnošljiva, a manje je posjetilaca na putu. Petkom prije podnevnog namaza treba izbjegavati, jer je tada najveća gužva.
Budget tips
Ulaz je besplatan, ali se prilog za održavanje rado prima. Ko posjeti obližnju citadelu, može kupiti kombinovanu kartu koja povoljnije pokriva obje atrakcije.

About
Quick facts: Minaret leaning at a 4-degree angle from damage during the Syrian civil war. The mosque dates to the 13th century and houses a fragment believed to be from the original Kaaba curtain.
Highlights: Worshippers here still gather beneath a massive 500-year-old wooden ceiling held together entirely by wooden pegs, no nails at all. During Friday prayers, the imam's voice echoes through the stone courtyard just as it did seven centuries ago, carrying over the scent of orange trees planted by Ottoman governors.
Insider tips
- Obucite odjeću koja pokriva ramena i koljena i ponesite maramu za glavu.
- Najbolje fotografije nastaju iz dvorišta na zlatnom popodnevnom svjetlu, kada mozaici toplo zasjaju.
- Restaurirani dijelovi zapadne fasade pokazuju znatno svjetlije kamenje, što je uzbudljiv kontrast starim zidovima.
- Pitajte imama o historiji propovjedaonice, njegove priče idu daleko izvan onoga što nude vođene ture.
