Damascus, Syria
Population:
4 Million
Worst Feature:
Garbage and Corruption
Best Feature:
You can haggle for just about anything
It hard to tell which is the greater stink in Syria; the garbage piled in
the streets of most cities like Damascus, or the corrupt government and
local officials.
The buildings are ugly, and by all accounts the people are
terribly rude and always looking to rip you off somehow.
Technology is very
“last century”; cell phone networks are non-existent or break down
constantly, and residents complain of waiting over an hour just to check
their e-mails.
Restaurants are known to charge you extra for the use of
knives forks and napkins.
