Life Style

The Homs Junior Chamber International recently launched the Homs Legacy Project within the international sector.

 The “Homs Legacy” campaign aims to preserve the tangible and intangible cultural heritage and introduce the young generation to archaeological sites within the city of Homs and in the nearby countryside, as well as to encourage domestic tourism and highlight the city’s most important archaeological landmarks.

Loujain Musharraf, Project Manager, said, “The Homs legacy campaign consists of three projects.

The first is “the Adiyah treasures” project run by the young Amar Al-Lush, which is a tour of the archaeological places in Homs, such as the most important churches, mosques, palaces, Arabic houses and markets, to end this event with holding a heritage event in the last point of this tour, including one of the heritage foods like Halawat el-jibn, al-Halawa al-Homsiah, and Harraq B’assab’o in addition to one of the heritage arts (Al-Aradah – Al-Hakwati and – Al-Muwlawi).

She went on to say, “The second project is the “Encyclopedia of Heritage”, which aims to collect and archive everything related to Homs’s heritage including photos and videos of archaeological sites on a link online so that anyone can view these images in cooperation with senior people and associations interested in heritage.”

“The third project is the “Kingdom of Qatna, the Pearl of the Orontes”. This project aims to shed light on one of the most important archaeological sites for Homs, which is located 18 km from the city in the archaeological hill of Al-Mushrifa and dates back to 2700 BC by organizing trips to the area and holding a short film competition on the region that will be shown on the JCI web page and the results of the winning team will be announced at the closing ceremony of the Homs Legacy Campaign,” she added.

“This project is run by a number of the JCI members, such as Vice President of International Sector Khaled Al-Fahla, and project managers Michel Musamoui, Amar Al-Lush, Ayman Abbara, Mohammed Al-Azhari with the participation of large members of the Chamber,” Loujain concluded.
