Sidon Souks
When going
from the sea castle towards the Castle of St. Louis, you'll go through Sidon's
souk. South of it you'll find the great Mosque. It's an ancient building which
in the 13th century had previously been a church: the Church of St. John of the
Hospitalers.
This church was built by the Crusaders in the shape of a fortress. The building
is truly imposing and well worth a visit.
