Roman Temple
(35 Km)
From Chtaura, proceed along
the Damascus road to Masnaa (border post). Shortly before the
post turn left, just beyond Manara (Hammara on map). Pass the
turnoff for Aita el-Foukhar, and continue on the upper road.
Eight kilometers further on, turn right at the sign for Yanta.
The ruins are about two kilometers along the road to Yanta
village.
The temple remains, on both sides of the
road, are sparse but impressive in their extent and favorable
location. A few upright stones are still in place. The entire
area is well worth exploring. |
