From the January issue of Arthur Magazine in "The Further Adventures of Dr. Moustache and the Egyptian Gentleman" by Daniel Chamberlin:
"The most spectacular of the ruins in this area of Syria is undoubtedly Krak de Chevaliers, a 12th-century fortress that lived up to every expectation that I have ever had for a castle... The castle feels like Lord of the Rings and the Crusades and the old Lego castle building sets all at once."
T.E. Lawrence called Krak de Chevaliers, "Perhaps the best preserved and most wholly admirable castle in the world." More here.
