EDITORS COMMENTS
Nestled in the picturesque town of Hama, Syria, these fascinating conical houses date back to circa 1906 and represent a unique architectural tradition. Built during a time when the region experienced scorching summer temperatures, these structures were designed to effectively manage the heat and retain coolness. The houses, made primarily of mudbrick, are characterized by their distinctive conical roofs. The roofs are not only visually striking but serve a practical purpose as well. The conical shape allows hot air to rise and escape, while the thick mudbrick walls act as insulation, keeping the interior cool and comfortable. The Syrian town of Hama, located on the Orontes River, has a rich history that dates back to ancient times. These traditional houses reflect the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the local people, who have adapted to the harsh climate and terrain. The conical houses are not only a testament to the region's architectural heritage but also a reminder of the resilience and adaptability of human settlements. Despite the passage of time and the challenges of modernization, many of these conical houses continue to stand proudly in Hama. They remain an intriguing and captivating sight for visitors, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the importance of preserving traditional architecture and cultural heritage.
