Al-Lādhiqīyah in Arabic. Capital of the prefecture of the same name in northwestern Syria. Port city on Cape Jara jutting out into the Mediterranean Sea. Syria's main port, with rich agricultural land behind it, is a trading center for olives, tobacco, and grains, and exports these agricultural products, as well as vegetable oil, asphalt, and pottery. Spinning, vegetable oil production, and sponge collection and processing are the main industries. Connected by road to Aleppo, Tripoli, and Beirut. There are ruins from the Phoenician period, and the name comes from Laodeikeia, named after the mother of Seleucus I in the 4th century BC. Due to frequent earthquakes, the only ancient structures that remain are a Roman triumphal arch and a Corinthian colonnade of the Temple of Bacchus. Population 284,000 (1992 estimate).

アラビア語でラーディキーヤ Al-Lādhiqīyah。シリア北西部の同名の県の県都。地中海に突出したジャーラ岬にある港湾都市。背後に豊かな農耕地を控えたシリアの主要港で,オリーブ,タバコ,穀物の集散地であるとともに,これらの農産物や,植物油,アスファルト,陶器などを輸出する。紡績,植物油製造,カイメン採取加工などが主要工業である。アレッポ,トリポリ,ベイルートと道路で連絡している。フェニキア時代からの遺跡があり,その名称は前4世紀のセレウコス1世の母にちなんでつけられたラオデイケアから出ている。地震が多いため,古代の建造物で残存しているものは,ローマの凱旋門,コリント式のバッカス神殿の列柱などにすぎない。人口 28万 4000 (1992推計) 。
