The event started with the recitation of the Holy Quran after welcoming the guests. After the opening speeches, Ahmet Yusuf Özdemir gave a speech on “Syrian Revolution”. The participants had the opportunity to get to know the cultural richness of the country closely with the Syrian folk dances and Yasmin Al Nayal's speech titled “Syria in Me, Me in Syria”.
In the foyer area, various stands were set up to showcase Syria's rich history and cultural heritage. Guests visited a photo exhibition of Syrian history and cultural graffiti. The event was further enlivened by food and beverage tables serving traditional delicacies, an oriental corner for relaxation, and a raffle table offering gifts to participants. An area where cultural materials and natural products were on sale was also appreciated by the visitors.
