Can you see it through the haze? Most of the time we can see the citadel from our balcony. However, photos don't really capture it well enough for my satisfaction. I may be a little off but, I think it was built circa 1100 by Saladin (spelled wrong?). He was able to band together factions in the area to hold off against the invading crusaders. Soon enough I will go for a tour and get some better info. The best way to see it is to blow it up as your desktop. Then look in the middle. You will see a hill with a rounded object and two spires. That is the Citadel. It looks a lot cooler in real life! Condsidering its about a fifteen minute drive from here, I guess we can see it pretty well.
