October War Panorama, Military museum in Damascus, Syria.

The October War Panorama contains military equipment, including Soviet-made tanks, jets, and weapons used during the 1973 conflict with Israel.

This national museum, inaugurated in 1998 by President Hafez al-Assad, features artifacts from the 1973 October War between Syria, Egypt, and Israel.

The museum displays North Korean-influenced socialist-realist art, with a substantial 238-square-meter painting depicting President Assad among Syrian citizens.

Located on Harasta Bus Terminal Road, visitors can reach the museum by taxi or local microbus services from central Damascus.

A rotating platform allows visitors to experience a three-dimensional panorama depicting the Battle of Quneitra in the Golan Heights.
