The book fair, which will last until Dec. 11, is being held after three years of a halt due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The exposition features 123 publishing houses from countries such as Iran, Oman, United Arab Emirates, France, Syria, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and Lebanon.

The eight-day-long event will include 24 symposiums for participants to interact and discuss various topics.

The first edition of the book fair was held in the mid-1950s, making it one of the oldest book fairs in the Arab region.
