There are two main museums in Homs, both located in the central part of the city. Qasr al-Zahrawi, a former [[Mamluk]]-era palace belonging to Ali ibn Abi al-Fadl al-Azzhari, a subordinate of [[Baibars]], the Mamluk sultan, is now the National Folklore Museum.<ref name="cart158"/> Outside the building is a courtyard, occupied on one side by a large terraced ''[[liwan]]'' with a conch shell semi-dome. In the opposite wall, there is a carving of two lions, a symbol of Baibars.
