Hama attractions

  • The world's largest Norias (a kind of waterwheel) on the River Orontes. Even in the dry season there might be one of these wheels turning, although if the water levels are very low (until end of April), there might not even be a recognizable current.
  • Souq - which seems to have a lot of shoes for sale.
  • Citadel - nothing remains of the castle, but it's a locals' favourite spot for a picnic on a friday. You do get some views over the city, can find some ice-cream there and plenty of families with their kids playing around.
  • Old town - you still see many of the destroyed buildings of the bombardement of the Hama massacre in 1982
  • Azem Palace, a little hidden in the old town, is not as big as its counterpart in Damascus but still very much worth a visit.
  • Hama Museum
