Saint Simon Cathedral. A General View


This citadel is 60 km north-west of Aleppo. It was named after the hermit Saint Simon (Sam'an), a shepherd from northern Syria, who became a monk after a revelation in a dream. Following Saint Simon's death in 459, the Emperor Zenon ordered that a cathedral be built where the saint used to pray.

I wanted to take a different shot, than what exist in touristic
booklets. I found fortunately these stones lying there.
