Do you know that one of the seven wonders in the world located in Iraq?
Talking about Iraq is not all about war, terrorist and people who killed each other. Despite it is one of the most dangerous country in the world, Iraq has a potential side of tourism. It was Hanging Gardens of Babylon. They were built by Nebuchadnezzar II around 600 BCE. It was built for Amities, Nebuchadnezzar’s wife, who missed her hometown, especially its tress and flagrant plants there. Their marriage was for politic purpose. Nebuchadnezzar II wished to integrate Babylon and Media.
They are 130feet in width and 400feet in length and 80feet in height.
It was a fascinating place more than all over city in the world in that time. They are full of flagrant flowers inside, plants, tress, etc. Also, there are a palace of Nebuchadnezzar and some temples, such as: Ishter Temple, Nabu Temple and Ninimakh Temple. In conclusion, Iraq is a nice place with nice people, despite all the terrorist activities.
