The former governor's house and mosque are now a museum.
Small alleyways pass between old houses.
A park in the center of the old city has a restuarant at the far end where they serve "chumus" (mashed chickpeas) with warm "ful "(beans), among other good things.
Recently, the municipality has made a pedestrian mall and plaza out of the center of the old city's commercial area.
There are many little shops in the old city: second-hand appliance and furniture stores, wood-working and metal-working shops, car garages and bicycle shops, key copying places, dry goods and fabrics, picture framing, plumbing supplies, and electrical and electronic parts.
On Friday mornings the mall is covered with stands selling arts and crafts.
People enjoy strolling and eating at places on the newly created mall.
