EDITORS COMMENTS
Damascus, the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world, is a vibrant and enchanting blend of ancient history and modern life. In this photograph from the 1910s, we are transported back in time as we gaze upon the Straight Road, or Sharia Al-Souq, in the heart of the Old City. The Straight Road is a bustling commercial thoroughfare, lined with colorful shopfronts and bustling bazaars. Here, merchants from all corners of the Middle East and beyond have gathered to sell their wares, from intricately woven textiles and fragrant spices, to precious metals and rare antiquities. The architecture of the shopfronts is a delightful mix of traditional Syrian design and Ottoman influences. Ornate wooden balconies jut out from the upper stories, adorned with intricate carvings and delicate latticework. The facades are painted in bold, eye-catching hues, drawing customers in to explore the hidden treasures within. Despite the passage of time, the Straight Road remains a bustling hub of activity. The sounds of haggling merchants and the clanging of metalwork fill the air, while the aromas of freshly baked bread and spiced meats waft through the narrow streets. This photograph offers a tantalizing glimpse into the rich history and vibrant culture of Damascus, a city that continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world.
