A Roman Theatre in ancient Palmyra in the Syrian Desert.

The Roman Theatre at Palmyra (Arabic: ุงู„ู…ุณุฑุญ ุงู„ุฑูˆู…ุงู†ูŠ ุจุชุฏู…ุฑโ€Ž) is a Roman theatre in ancient Palmyra in the Syrian Desert. The unfinished theatre dates back to the second-century CE Severan period. The theatre's remains have since been restored. It used to serve as a venue for the annual Palmyra festival, before the ancient town was taken by ISIL (May 2015).
