Strange Web Awards for Damman
 
Never heard such a strange city like Damman : is it Damas or Amman ? :confused:

Damman is in Saudi Arabia, near the Bahraini border.
Strange destination for an award, though, given that this is really a business destination in view of the impossibility for most of getting a visa to Saudi Arabia for 'ordinary' tourism.

Damman is also referred to as 'Dhahran'.

There no city in Saudi arabia called Damman.
The proper name is Dammam

No, Dammam and Dhahran are seperate cities.

Indeed, served by the same airport: King Fahd International Airport (DMM), as distinct from AMM (Amman in Jordan) and DAM (Damascus in Syria).
I think we are collectively beating records of pedantry in this thread. :)
