Aleppo Bab al-Nasr 0093.jpg

view map

The Bab al-Nasr (Gate of Victory), slightly hidden 30 meters off the nearby main street, the Al Khandak street. It is "largely Ayyubid in origin, it was reconstructed by al-Zaher Ghazi", there seems to be an inscription indicating so, maybe it is this one. The "wall between the two bastions has been dismantled to give direct access through the gateway whose original design required two right-angle turns through the left bastion."
