AS TOURIST IN HOMS, FROM THE MOST DEVASTATED CITY IN SYRIA AND BACK TO NORMAL LIFE.
Around 70% of Homs was destroyed before the city was back under Government control. Homs is the city where you will see the most destruction in Syria, but rebuilding has started and even the old Souq (market) that was completely destroyed during some of the heaviest battles during the war, is very soon ready to reopen. A few shops are up and running already, and all others are soon to follow.
