Khan Tuman, Ottoman caravanserai in Aleppo, Syria.
The stone structure stands on a hill east of the Queiq River, featuring traditional Islamic architectural elements and an arched bridge crossing the waterway.
Built in 1189, Khan Tuman functioned as a crucial stopping point for merchants and travelers along the trade routes connecting Aleppo to Damascus.
The caravanserai represents the medieval Islamic architectural traditions of Syria, with rooms arranged around a central courtyard following Middle Eastern design principles.
Located at coordinates 36.1175, 37.050833, the site remains accessible through the Aleppo-Damascus highway, though security conditions should be verified before visiting.
British military forces utilized the structure during World War I, as documented in James McBey's 1918 artwork depicting motor transport columns near the site.
