Towering above the city, the citadel has dominated Aleppo since many centuries. Easy to visit now, it was a formidable obstacle to invaders in the Middle Ages.
As you approach the entrance, it becomes clear that the designers did everything to make the fortification impossible to invade. The main doors are on the right as you enter, which makes it more difficult to ram them. Once inside, the corridor takes several 90 degree turns to slow down anyone who made it this far. Apart from this, there are massive doors which are decorative now, but which were a formidable obstacle once closed. Moreover, there is almost no light inside. There are only a few holes in the ceiling through which rays of sunlight shed some light in the darkness of the corridor.
