Al Azem Palace is a true example of the most extravagant lifestyle and culture of Damascus. The palace is divided into two sections: the haramlik and the salamlik. Haramlik is the family wing that is a private space that includes kitchens and baths. Salamlik, reserved for the outside guests, contains the formal halls, beautiful reception areas and courtyards for entertainment. Marvel at the traditional Damascene ablaq designs of alternating stripes of black and white stone on the outside. Explore the elaborate wooden panelling on the walls and ceilings inside. Spend some time in the central courtyards featuring fountains and relax under the trees and overhanging vines.
It is only 1 Km from the city centre and can be reached by foot or car.
