LOCATION

Apamee Cham Palace, overlooking the Orontes River with it's famous water wheels, is located in the center of Hama. Hama (Hamath), situated between Homs and Aleppo on the banks of the Orontes River, is an important agricultural and industrial center. Except for Damascus, Hama is considered the most picturesque city in Syria and one may wish to take time to relax in the attractive gardens along the river banks.

The chief attraction of Hama are the great norias (water-wheels). Originating in Byzantine times, the oldest surviving wheels date from the 13th century. The norias, which all have given names, were used to raise water from the river into aqueducts. As this function is now carried out by electric pumps, the purpose of the wheels today is purely decorative and of historical interest.

Hama's Museum, housed in Beit al-Azem (the Azem Mansion) is a splendid example of 18th century Ottoman architecture. There are lovely courtyards with central fountains, mosaics, richly decorated wood ceilings and paneled walls, marble floors and wax models of various aspects of Syrian life in bygone days illustrating the sumptuousness of a Pasha's life.
There are numerous mosques and Greek Orthodox churches worth a visit, as well as the aqueducts and, of course, the Citadel (qala'at Hama) once the site of an 11th century BC royal palace and later a Muslim fortress.

About 50 km west of Hama, the great city of Apamea - one of the three great cities of the post -Alexandrian Empire - was the prosperous Seleucid capital situated in the midst of a thriving agricultural region. Surrounded by farmland, it was the most important military center of the Helenicised Asia Minor. A full-day visit is highly recommended.
