Head to the Desert
Pick up your bags and pack your back pack and travel to Palmyra, the gem in the the heart of the Syrian desert. In the past Palmyra is a city enveloped with palm trees, thus was referred to as the Palm City. It was here that merchants traded silk from Chinese suppliers and other merchandise to be sent to the places in the Mediterranean and beyond. That was the picture of early Palmyra. Recently, Palmyra might not be such an ideal location for you to pay a visit simply because of the unrest taking place which seems to get worse every day on the news. But soon enough, as soon as circumstances resolve, you can take a trip to the spectacular Palmyra, as well as learn to fall in love with the spot.
