Mount Qasioun

Mount Qasioun is a mountain overlooking the city of Damascus, Syria. It has a range of restaurants, from which the whole city can be viewed.

History

Due to its high elevation, several communications and broadcasting networks constructed relay stations at the summit for the city's communications. As the city has expanded over the years, some districts have been established at the foot of the mountain. Its highest point is 1,151 metres (3,776 ft).
