Syria offers a unique blend of historical significance and natural beauty, making it an intriguing option for some Filipino travelers. While the country has faced challenges in recent years, it still holds appeal for a segment of the 1.5 million Filipinos who travel abroad annually.
Syria is currently considered unsafe for tourists, including those from the Philippines. According to the Global Peace Index, Syria ranks 153rd out of 160 countries, significantly lower than the Philippines, which ranks 102nd. The murder rate in Syria is 2.2 per 100,000 people, compared to the Philippines' rate of 4.4. However, crime indices indicate higher levels of organized crime and state crime in Syria, with scores of 10.0 for state crime and 9.0 for crime networks, compared to the Philippines' scores of 8.0 and 6.0, respectively. Overall, the security situation in Syria poses considerable risks for tourists.
