Khan Al-Shouna

The caravanserai of Khan Al-Shouna in Aleppo, which was built in the year of 1546, is now being restored. Khan Al-Shouna functioned as a market for trades and traditional handicrafts of Aleppine art and consisted of 49 shops. It was one of the loveliest khans (caravanserais) in Aleppo, architecture-wise.
