Motoring

by dutchwindmill

For those motoring enthusiasts: go by your own car or rent one! (I rented a surprisingly fast Megane - must have been a 2 Litre - through Hertz in Central Damascus.) This is definitely one of the best countries to be behind the wheel: perfect main roads network; great off-road (rock and sand) driving (although not for me this time); plains and some nice mountainous roads; no pesky policemen or gatsometers (well supposedly there may be some). Just anticipate to the max so as not to get involved in an accident. Alternative to Syria: Yemen.Riding a motor cycle would be at least as great. The risks are naturally higher.

Swimming: Tartus or Latakia ?

by al.ladin

According my experience is good to visit Tartus and the island Arwad, but take a bath in your bathroom. A beach is quite dirty although water is so-so (a harbour is very close). There are clean paid beaches in Latakia.

More swimming pools

by MalenaN

One afternoon in Aleppo Firas, Leen and I went for a swim in one of the many swimming pools in city. The first two we went to were only open for men that day. So, if you are going to visit a swimming pool you might have to look for one that is right for you that day!It was a hot day and the swim was very really refreshing! Something to recommend a summer day in Aleppo!I was in Aleppo two years before and by that time I did not know at all that there were so many swimming pools in the city. And I guess it is the same in other big cities, at least in Damascus, that there are clubs with swimmingpools.

Swimming

by MalenaN

Well, I made a lot of walking in Syria. But it is nice with a change. When I was tired of the ruins of Palmyra (had seen a lot of ruins before as well), I went to the swimmingpool at Heliopolis Hotel to swim for an hour. To use the pool you pay 150 SP. First I didn't know if I could go or not, travelling as a single female. It was OK. There were some young boys playing in the pool and me swimming. Two female American guests at the hotel saw me and came down for a swim (the pool is actually a bit to the side of the hotel). After the swimming I had a sandwish and cola (75 SP). More boys (young and old) came and I don't think I had felt confortable swimming at that time. There were no girls or women around.

Everything

by dr.firas

Everything you need if you're staying in Hims for one week to deserve doing some sport,sportclubs are everywhere in the city, and the best one to do is swimming, especially in the summer ;-)

Climbing

by dr.firas

Qala'at al Rahba is a beaten path on the hill, so you'll be forced to climb, no car or horse could do it for you, and then you have to get down like a ski style on the sand, cool and sport for free!
