Entrance to the Citadel, Aleppo. A THOUGHT-PROVOKING series of images by a British photographer have been released showing what Syria was like just before its six-year civil war broke out. The stunning collection of photographs shows Aleppo’s citadel which is now is ruins, the destroyed Roman Theatre and ancient tetrapylon historical ruins of Palmyra and the stunning UNESCO world heritage site of the Umayyad mosque, Aleppo which was built between the 8th and 13th centuries. Other pictures show a couple of carefree boys having a water fight in the street, people relaxing in Aleppo’s juice bars
