Najwspanialszy Zamek Krzyżowców, leży w pd-zach. Syrii, strzegł drogi do Bejrutu. Zbudowany w XII w., ciekawy przykład eksportu francuskiego gotyku na Bliski Wschód. Łacińska inskrypcja mniej więcej mówi, że "choćby była potęga, dostatek i organizacja, i tak wszystko zniszczy pycha". {Podróż z Jarkiem i Mirką 2005r.}

Global Treasures BOSRA Syria
GTR-DVD-1237 - Around a hundred and fifty kilometres south of the Syrian capital of Damascus, and located amid the fertile Nuqra Plains, lie the ruins of Bosra. The rural atmosphere of the surrounding landscape can also be felt within the ancient city as sheep and goats graze between the ruins that back to various epochs. The Bahira Basilica is a legendary place. According to legend it was here that the monk, Sergius, introduced the Prophet Mohammed to Christianity and described to him his divine mission. Both architectural and historical examples of the Roman Empire, such as the Southern Thermes, still cover large areas of the ancient city. The well-preserved remains of Bosra's second century Well House, the Nymphäum, still provides a good insight into the fine setting given to it by the Romans. A nine hundred metre long street was once the main axis of the city that, at its zenith, had around eighty thousand inhabitants. Today the ancient metropolis has a population of around a thousand and they earn their living from tourism, agriculture and livestock. Its unique combination of numerous historic and cultural epochs continues to make this Syrian city a most worthwhile and fascinating destination.
