This is just great news. I hope it will become a nice park in Quinisrin.
Maybe it can be just as nice as the Azhar-park in Cairo. The historical city of Aleppo deserves such a park and I hope, with your help, one day the city will be as beautiful as it was before and I believe this can be with the help of the Aga Khan organisations.
It is also great news what happened in Damascus. I hope that Aga Khan will also adopt some houses in the old city of Aleppo.
A lot of thanks and succes!
