Palmyra (Tadmor)
Palmyra is splendid, a very particular place. It is where the Roman and Sassanid Empires in the Antique met and their influence were mixed with the characteristics of the population by then Helenic-Aramean-Arabic

To the right you see the end of the Pillar Street and to the left the peculiar tomb-towers. It was a very misty and windy day but this might have added some effects to the picture

In the front are the remains of some pillars of the main Pillar Street. To the background you see peculiar tomb-towers. It was a very misty and windy day but this might have added some effects to the picture.
