Palmyra Castle - Syria

 Fakhr-al-Din al-Ma'ani Castle or Palmyra Castle is a castle in the province of Homs, Syria. The castle is thought to have been built by the Mamluks in the 13th century on a high hill overlooking the historic site of Palmyra, and is named for the Druze emir Fakhr-al-Din II, who extended the Druze domains to the region of Palmyra during the 16th century. The site of the castle and Palmyra in 1980 became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in recognition of the monumental ruins of a great city, which was one of the most important cultural centres of the ancient world. 3D Modeling by photogrammetry from 260 aerial images taken by Gérard Pouillot & post processing by [Drones Imaging](http://www.dronesimaging.com/) - Dense cloud: 149 213 73 points.
