Located at the crossroads of various trade routes since the 2nd millenium B.C., Aleppo was ruled successively by the Hittites, Assyrians, Arabs, Mongols, Mamelukes and Ottomans. Its 13th-century citadel, its 12th-century Great Mosque and various 17th-century medersas, palaces, caravanserais and hammams give it a cohesive and unique urban fabric, now threatened by overpopulation.
