WALKING AND PRAYING - City of Masyaf SYRIA 1152's Tour, Back in the Time

Masyaf was an important stronghold of the Nizari Ismailis, also known as the Assassins. During this time, the castle of Masyaf was controlled by their leader, Rashid ad-Din Sinan. The Assassins were known for their covert operations and resistance against various powers during the Crusades. While there might not be specific events from 1152, this period witnessed ongoing conflict between the Crusader states and the Muslim forces, making Masyaf a significant location in the region.

Castle of Masyaf: The prominent landmark of Masyaf is its castle, which played a significant role in the history of the region. Built on a hilltop, the castle was originally constructed during the 10th century and served as the residence of the Nizari Ismaili leadership, including Rashid ad-Din Sinan.

The Assassins: Masyaf was the headquarters of the Nizari Ismailis, commonly known as the Assassins. The Assassins gained notoriety for their secretive and decentralized organization, carrying out assassinations of their political enemies during the Crusades. Their influence extended across the Levant region, and they were known for their tactics of psychological warfare.

Literary mentions: Masyaf has been prominently featured in various literary works, such as the novel "Alamut" by Vladimir Bartol. The book draws inspiration from the history of the Assassins and imagines the life in the fortress of Alamut in Persia (although Masyaf is often referenced in other editions).

Clifftop Location: Masyaf is situated atop a hill and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The strategic location and architectural design of the castle made it a formidable stronghold during the Crusades.

Modern-day Masyaf: Today, Masyaf is a small city in Syria's Hama Governorate. It is known for its historical significance and attracts tourists interested in learning more about the crusader era and the Assassins. However, due to the ongoing conflict in Syria, access to Masyaf and its castle is highly restricted.
