The houses had traditional Damascene features, including grand mansions and beautiful decorations. The Jews&#8217; celebrations and festivities were in the courtyards, similar to the customs in Muslim and Christian homes in Damascus. What distinguished the houses in this quarter was the extravagant luxury, making them artistic masterpieces. For example, workers moved one of the marble halls from Shamayya Palace entirely to Nasib Hanbali&#8217;s palace in Lebanon.<\/p>    <div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>   <div class=\"lazy-load-block-container\"><img style=\"width: auto; height: auto;\" class=\"lazy-load-block\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.thisisdimashq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-36.jpeg\" alt=\"\u062d\u0627\u0631\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u064a\u0647\u0648\u062f\" \/><\/div>   <div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>   <div class=\"lazy-load-block-container\"><img style=\"width: auto; height: auto;\" class=\"lazy-load-block\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.thisisdimashq.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-37.jpeg\" alt=\"\u062d\u0627\u0631\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u064a\u0647\u0648\u062f\" \/><\/div>   <div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>    <p>Most of these houses stand abandoned, while some undergo renovation, particularly the palaces that are being transformed into tourist attractions and hotels.
