the Faculty of Architecture and later moved to the old city, listening to scientific and architectural explanations presented by specialists from the faculty and the historical society about the architectural characteristics of the old city and its role in shaping its urban identity.  <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>President of Homs University, Prof. Tarek Houssam ElDeen, has emphasized that the

the faculty\u2019s vision to enhance field interaction between students and the heritage urban fabric, stressing that the walk constitutes an integrated educational experience that allows students to link theoretical knowledge with practical application, and promote their awareness of the importance of protecting and preserving heritage for future generations.  <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Prof.
