Saadallah Al-Jabiri Square

Saadallah Al-Jabiri Square (Arabic: ساحة سعدالله الجابري‎) is the central town square at the heart of the Syrian city of Aleppo. It is the most important square in the city, experiencing most of the celebrations and festivals in Aleppo.

The square is adjacent to the "Public Park of Aleppo", intersected by "Majd Al-Deen Al-Jabiri" street from the east and "Kamel Al-Ghazzi" street from the west. It took its name from the Syrian patriotic leader and politician; the former prime minister Saadallah al-Jabiri. A monument to the Syrian martyrs is erected in the northern forehead of the square. Parts of the stream bed of Quweiq River are coverd by the quare and the adjacent roads and buildings.

In February 2010, the Aleppo City Council announced its intention to launch a rehabilitation process in the square, which may play an important role in the solution of the traffic congestion in the centre of the city.[1]
