It is located in the old Al-Jdayde, Jdeydeh Quarter, outside the historic walls of the Ancient City of Aleppo. The square suffered catastrophic damage during the Syrian civil war. History In 1400, the Mongol Empire, Mongol-Turkic leader Timur, Tamerlane captured the city of Aleppo from the Mamluk Sultanate (Cairo), Mamluks and massacred many of its inhabitants. After the withdrawal of the Mongols, the Muslim population returned to Aleppo. In contrast the Christians, Christian residents, unable to resettle in their own city quarters, established a new neighbourhood just to the north of the city walls in the early 1420s. This area became known as Aleppo's ''Al-Jdayde, al-Jdeydeh'' (Jdeideh) Quarter (for "new district" in Arabic). Al-Hatab Square became the centre of this newly established quarter and was surrounded by many churches, Turkish bath, hammams, khans, c ... <a href="/html/ALL/s/A/Al-Hatab_Square.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> <br>[...More Info...] &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp <a href="/html/ALL/l/A/Al-Hatab_Square.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> [...Related Items...] &nbsp &nbsp <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Hatab_Square" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"><b> OR:</b> &nbsp &nbsp [Wikipedia] &nbsp </a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Al-Hatab_Square" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Google] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a href="https://www.bing.com/search?q=Al-Hatab_Square" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Bing] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://search.yahoo.com/search?q=Al-Hatab_Square" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Yahoo] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Al-Hatab_Square" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [DuckDuckGo] &nbsp </a> --> <a href="https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=Al-Hatab_Square" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Baidu] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a target="_blank" href= "https://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-books-Amazon/zgbs/books?&linkCode=ll2&tag=summaryads-20&linkId=d306a27d115d3acda99952aa20527cd6&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl" style="text-decoration:none;">[Amazon Books]</a> --> </div> <br></a></a> <br> </div> <!-- data-end ---></td> <!-- row-end ---></tr> <!-- row-start ---><tr;

They share a common cultural system and are native speakers of the Persian language as well as of the languages that are closely related to Persian. The ancient Persians were originally an ancient Iranian people who had migrated to the region of Persis (corresponding to the modern-day Iranian province of Fars) by the 9th century BCE. Together with their compatriot allies, they established and ruled some of the world's most powerful empires that are well-recognized for their massive cultural, political, and social influence, which covered much of the territory and population of the ancient world.. Throughout history, the Persian people have contributed greatly to art and science. Persian literature is one of the world's most prominent literary traditions.

The shop was established in 1885 by Abdel Razzaq "Abu Abdo" al-Masri at al-Hatab Square, near the Zamaria house in the Jdeydeh Quarter of the Ancient City of Aleppo. The parlor is famous for levantine and Aleppo style fūl dishes. Usually, the fava beans are left simmering in large copper jars throughout the night, to be served from the next morning on; the beans swim in tahini and olive oil, completed with a hint of red pepper paste over the top. The shop is one of the oldest and most famous parlors in Aleppo. In 2013 the shop was severely damaged during the clashes between the Syrian Army and the militants of the armed opposition. The shop has been relocated to a nearby street since late August 2012. Notable guests Many famous natives of Aleppo or guests have visited the parlor: including Sayed Darwish, Umm Kulthum, Farid al-Atrash, Sabah Fakhri, Adel Emam, Muhammad Naji al-Otari, Hasan Da ... <a href="/html/ALL/s/A/Abu_Abdo.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> <br>[...More Info...] &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp <a href="/html/ALL/l/A/Abu_Abdo.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> [...Related Items...] &nbsp &nbsp <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Abdo" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"><b> OR:</b> &nbsp &nbsp [Wikipedia] &nbsp </a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Abu_Abdo" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Google] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a href="https://www.bing.com/search?q=Abu_Abdo" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Bing] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://search.yahoo.com/search?q=Abu_Abdo" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Yahoo] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Abu_Abdo" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [DuckDuckGo] &nbsp </a> --> <a href="https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=Abu_Abdo" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Baidu] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a target="_blank" href= "https://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-books-Amazon/zgbs/books?&linkCode=ll2&tag=summaryads-20&linkId=d306a27d115d3acda99952aa20527cd6&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl" style="text-decoration:none;">[Amazon Books]</a> --> </div> <br></a></a> <br> </div> <!-- data-end ---></td> <!-- row-end ---></tr> <!-- row-start ---><tr; > <!-- data-start ---><td width="15%"><p> <a href="/html/ALL/s/F/Ful_Medames.html" title="Click for more on -> Ful Medames"> <center><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e5/Ful_medames.jpg" title="Click for more on -> Ful Medames" width="100%;" height="auto;"><center></a> <a href = "https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ful_medames.jpg" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none; color:#d0d0d0;">picture info</a> </p> <!-- data-end ---></td> <!-- data-start ---><td valign="top"; width="75%"; > <div style="margin-left:0%; margin-right:9%";> <!-- <a href="/php/SummaryGet.php?FindGo=Ful Medames" title="Click for more on -> Ful Medames"><big>Ful Medames</big><br> </a> ---> <div style="margin-left:2%";> <big><big><b><a href="/html/ALL/s/F/Ful_Medames.html" style="text-decoration:none;">Ful Medames</a></b></big></big><br> Ful medames ( ar, فول مدمس, ' ; other spellings include ''ful mudammas'' and '' foule mudammes''), or simply fūl, is a stew of cooked fava beans served with olive oil, cumin, and optionally with chopped parsley, garlic, onion, lemon juice, chili pepper, and other vegetable, herb, and spice ingredients. Ful medames is traditionally made in and served out of a large metal jug. It is notably a staple food in Egypt and is considered a national dish, especially in the northern cities of Cairo and Gizah. Fava beans can sometimes be also found in other cuisines in the Middle East, and Africa, though cooked differently. History Some writers have suggested that ful medames dated all the way back to Ancient Egypt. Some evidence of the use of ful is a cache of 2,600 dried fava beans unearthed at a late Neolithic site on the outskirts of Nazareth.

Traditionally, urban planning followed a top-down approach in master planning the physical layout of human settlements. The primary concern was the public welfare, which included considerations of efficiency, sanitation, protection and use of the environment, as well as effects of the master plans on the social and economic activities. Over time, urban planning has adopted a focus on the social and environmental bottom-lines that focus on planning as a tool to improve the health and well-being of people while maintaining sustainability standards.

(It can also refer to short sales in which the speculator hopes for a decline in value.) Many speculators pay little attention to the fundamental value of a security and instead focus purely on price movements. In principle, speculation can involve any tradable good or financial instrument. Speculators are particularly common in the markets for stocks, bonds, commodity futures, currencies, fine art, collectibles, real estate, and derivatives. Speculators play one of four primary roles in financial markets, along with hedgers, who engage in transactions to offset some other pre-existing risk, arbitrageus who seek to profit from situations where fungible instruments trade at different prices in different market segments, and investors who seek profit through long-term ownership of an instrument's underlying attributes.

Roads (including the pavement), public squares, parks, and beaches are typically considered public space. To a limited extent, government buildings which are open to the public, such as public libraries, are public spaces, although they tend to have restricted areas and greater limits upon use. Although not considered public space, privately owned buildings or property visible from sidewalks and public thoroughfares may affect the public visual landscape, for example, by outdoor advertising. Recently, the concept of shared space has been advanced to enhance the experience of pedestrians in public space jointly used by automobiles and other vehicles. Public space has also become something of a touchstone for critical theory in relation to philosophy, urban geography, visual art, cultural studies, social studies and urban design. The term 'public space' is also often misconstrued to mean other th ... <a href="/html/ALL/s/P/Public_Space.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> <br>[...More Info...] &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp <a href="/html/ALL/l/P/Public_Space.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> [...Related Items...] &nbsp &nbsp <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Space" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"><b> OR:</b> &nbsp &nbsp [Wikipedia] &nbsp </a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Public_Space" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Google] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a href="https://www.bing.com/search?q=Public_Space" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Bing] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://search.yahoo.com/search?q=Public_Space" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Yahoo] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Public_Space" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [DuckDuckGo] &nbsp </a> --> <a href="https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=Public_Space" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Baidu] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a target="_blank" href= "https://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-books-Amazon/zgbs/books?&linkCode=ll2&tag=summaryads-20&linkId=d306a27d115d3acda99952aa20527cd6&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl" style="text-decoration:none;">[Amazon Books]</a> --> </div> <br></a></a> <br> </div> <!-- data-end ---></td> <!-- row-end ---></tr> <!-- row-start ---><tr; > <!-- data-start ---><td width="15%"><p> <a href="/html/ALL/s/B/Beit_Achiqbash.html" title="Click for more on -> Beit Achiqbash"> <center><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/67/Beit_Achiqbash_Survey_September_2017.jpg" title="Click for more on -> Beit Achiqbash" width="100%;" height="auto;"><center></a> <a href = "https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Beit_Achiqbash_Survey_September_2017.jpg" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none; color:#d0d0d0;">picture info</a> </p> <!-- data-end ---></td> <!-- data-start ---><td valign="top"; width="75%"; > <div style="margin-left:0%; margin-right:9%";> <!-- <a href="/php/SummaryGet.php?FindGo=Beit Achiqbash" title="Click for more on -> Beit Achiqbash"><big>Beit Achiqbash</big><br> </a> ---> <div style="margin-left:2%";> <big><big><b><a href="/html/ALL/s/B/Beit_Achiqbash.html" style="text-decoration:none;">Beit Achiqbash</a></b></big></big><br> Beit Achiqbash (Arabic: بيت أجقباش في الجديدة); (''Bait Achikbache House'', ''Bayt Ajiqbash,'' ''Maison Ajikbash'') is an old Aleppine courtyard mansion built in the mid 18th Century by Qarah Ali (Karaly), a wealthy Christian merchant. Background Beit Achiqbash is one of a number of historic buildings found in the Al-Jdayde Christian quarter of Aleppo. It was built in 1757 CE. A Turk named Ashiqbash later bought the house after the Karaly (Qara Ali) moved to Alexandretta. The house is famous for its courtyard, which is extravagantly decorated in a Mamluk-Rococo style. The building was turned into a museum in 1973 and restored in the 1980s. It is well known for the fine carved ornaments that decorate its courtyard. Its style is said to have been greatly influenced by Baroque decorative traditions. The rooms on its eastern side were eliminated to make way for the street that now runs in front of the property.

It was named after the Ghazaleh family that owned it for about two centuries. Since 1914, it was used as a public school and was recently restored to host the Memory Museum of the city of Aleppo. Beit Ghazaleh is located in the Al-Jdayde district of Aleppo. History: the origins of the Ġazaleh House in Aleppo The house is located on the Western edge of a large suburb inhabited by a multi-religious and multi-ethnic population. This neighbourhood to the North of the old city of Aleppo developed since the late Mameluke period. This area became the Christian quarter of Jdeideh which was organically clustered around its churches. Here lived the notables of Aleppo's Christian communities, notably the Armenians who specialised in trade with India and Persia. The Ġazaleh House was built in front of two large Muslim waqfs — created in ... <a href="/html/ALL/s/B/Beit_Ghazaleh.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> <br>[...More Info...] &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp <a href="/html/ALL/l/B/Beit_Ghazaleh.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> [...Related Items...] &nbsp &nbsp <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beit_Ghazaleh" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"><b> OR:</b> &nbsp &nbsp [Wikipedia] &nbsp </a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Beit_Ghazaleh" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Google] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a href="https://www.bing.com/search?q=Beit_Ghazaleh" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Bing] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://search.yahoo.com/search?q=Beit_Ghazaleh" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Yahoo] &nbsp </a> --> <!-- <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Beit_Ghazaleh" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [DuckDuckGo] &nbsp </a> --> <a href="https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=Beit_Ghazaleh" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Baidu] &nbsp </a> <!-- <a target="_blank" href= "https://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-books-Amazon/zgbs/books?&linkCode=ll2&tag=summaryads-20&linkId=d306a27d115d3acda99952aa20527cd6&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl" style="text-decoration:none;">[Amazon Books]</a> --> </div> <br></a></a> <br> </div> <!-- data-end ---></td> <!-- row-end ---></tr> <!-- row-start ---><tr; > <!-- data-start ---><td width="15%"><p> <a href="/html/ALL/s/Z/Zamaria_House.html" title="Click for more on -> Zamaria House"> </p> <!-- data-end ---></td> <!-- data-start ---><td valign="top"; width="75%"; > <div style="margin-left:0%; margin-right:9%";> <!-- <a href="/php/SummaryGet.php?FindGo=Zamaria House" title="Click for more on -> Zamaria House"><big>Zamaria House</big><br> </a> ---> <div style="margin-left:2%";> <big><big><b><a href="/html/ALL/s/Z/Zamaria_House.html" style="text-decoration:none;">Zamaria House</a></b></big></big><br> ''Rondeletia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the Family (biology), family Rubiaceae.

Positioning is secondary for these hotels as they focus on authenticity and personalization. They capitalize on the desire for rich experiences by incorporating elements such as nature and environment, cuisine, history, local culture and community, service and wellness. History Boutique hotels began appearing in the 1980s in major cities like London, New York, and San Francisco. Two of the first opened in 1981: Blakes Hotel in South Kensington, London (designed by Anouska Hempel) and the Bedford in Union Square, San Francisco (the first in a series of 34 boutique hotels currently operated by the Kimpton Group). Although there is some debate as to whether it was the first boutique hotel, Morgans, founded by Ian Schrager and Steve Rubell in New York City, is the most notable of the era; it debuted in 1984.
