After Palmyra, probably the most impressive ruins to be found in Syria, Apamea boasts a great location and has some surprises to be found.
Apamea, or Afamia as the Syrians call it, was founded in the 3rd century BCE, by Seleucus I, former general in the army of Alexander the Great. Named after his Persian wife Afamia, Apamea achieved importance as a trading post and was famous for its many horses, stables, and even elephants who were used in warfare. Even now, the area around Apamea is clearly fertile and pleasant to live in. Whatever can be seen now are the remains of the rebuilt city that reached its best days in the 2nd century CE. It continued to be prosperous until the 6th century, and after it fell to the Mamluks, the city declined further.
