Currently Playing: Historic Town of Maaloula, Syria [Amazing Places 4K]

The town of Maaloula is one of the most scenic villages in Syria, it is also famous for its importance in the history of Syrian Christianity and as the only place in the world (together with 3 nearby villages) where Aramaic, the language of Christ, is still spoken. Maaloula is also home of two historic Christian monasteries: one Greek Orthodox dedicated to Saint Thekla, and another Greek Catholic - Saint Sergius (Mar Sarkis). For centuries, both have been places of pilgrimage for Christians and Muslims. Maaloula is on the tentative list of sites in Syria to be considered for inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage list.
