Doura Europos has served as a military colony, a fortress and a caravan city, and still offers great views over the Euphrates river to the present-day visitor.
Coming from Mari, a little further south-east, we waited for a bus, and after a while started trying to hitch-hike. The first car passed at high speed, but after a while came back to the crossroads. They appeared to be Kuwaitis who quickly took us to Doura Europos, even though they had to go somewhere else. As we did not see anyone at the entrance, we entered the main Palmyra Gate in the defensive wall covering the entire site, and found ourselves on the seemingly empty plains of this old city. We walked along the wall, trying to discover the various remains of buildings among the ruins of Doura Europos. We walked until we reached a small canyon on the south-eastern side of the old fortifications. Here, it was easy to see how the location of Doura Europos was perfect as a fortification, helped by the natural setting of canyons and the Euphrates river on two sides, and the defensive wall on the others.
