Historic psychiatric ward



Well, this was Aleppos mental hospital, where sunlight, the sound of running water and soft music playing were important ingredients in the treatment of patients. It was active into the 20th century, but no longer.

If I start digging deep into my photo backlog one day, I could show you pictures of an early university hospital in Anatolian Kayseri (Seldjuk-era). Save it for a rainy day!
