Al-Madina Souq ran to roughly 13 kilometres of covered market, the largest in the world, some of it dating to the 14th century. Much of it burned in 2012; restoration has been under way since 2017.
The clock: Aleppo keeps UTC+3. Its citadel sits on a mound occupied since at least the 3rd millennium BC.
Aleppo lies at 37.1°E. Its time zone, UTC+3, is built around the 45°E meridian. The 7.9° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 31 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 12:31 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC+3 all year — there is no daylight saving here.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 14h 38m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 9h 42m. The swing between them is 4h 56m. This is the latitude band where the difference between summer and winter evenings is most obvious.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Aleppo the sun comes up earliest on 14 June at 05:13, while the latest sunset waits until 30 June at 19:53. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Aleppo that civil twilight runs about 26 minutes at the equinox.
