Aleppo citadel entrance

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: One of a pair of lions on either side of a door. Upon reaching the front of the inner gateway one has to enter a door to the right, it has intertwining dragons above it. One enters a series of corridors with later a door with two lions on either side as well as wone with lions above its lintel. All supposedly had a mythical guarding effect. At some point one passes, following a set of five bending corridors, what seems to be a grave. In the end one reaches the courtyard.
