Damascus Damascus: Paradise on Earth - DVD
Damascus: Paradise on Earth
Once the legendary dynasty of the Omayyad's had chosen Damascus as it's capital in the 7th century, the Syrian city acquired a fabulous reputation. For almost 100 years Damascus was the cultural linchpin of the world, a city where the most learned men of the Mediterranean region lived and the most skillful craftsmen worked. The Omayyad caliphs contributed to this golden age; they summoned the most skilled craftsmen in Byzantium to work on the mosaics in the newly constructed Omayyad Mosque.
