The National Museum of Damascus houses the world’s many collections of archaeological and historical treasures. Along with its counterpart in Aleppo, the Damascus museum provides an irreplaceable panorama of Syria’s history. Due to the civil war that has raged across the country since 2011, many valuable displays were moved into the cavernous underground storage space for safe-keeping. The museum is surrounded by a beautiful garden which displays many important historic statues and decorative stones that has been renovated. The Damascus museum showcases the rich culture and history of the ancient eras that ruled the country.
