Palestine, (Pal Telegraph) - The city of Nablus, with its surrounding areas, has been known for thousands of years as a main commercial and cultural centre in Palestine. It was built, destroyed, and rebuilt many times as many conquerors sought to control it for its strategic location and geographic and environmental characteristics. The mountainous nature and rich water resources forced the Romans to develop the city from east to west at the valley between Gerizim and Ebal mountains. The city was built at the lower part of Mount Gerizim and expanded gradually against its slopes. The rough terrain affected the shapes and styles of the city’s architecture and built environment. Hence, many civilisations that passed through and temporarily stayed in Nablus left their imprints on its unique and charming topography.
