Baghdad

The city of Baghdad has suffered in recent years as a result of insurgent group bombings and attacks. Baghdad, with its unique location in the center of Mesopotamia, is a fascinating city. The city has long been an important cultural, commercial, and political hub in the Islamic World.

Today, Baghdad does not receive as many tourists as it once did, but the city is on its way to re-establishing itself as an important tourism destination. To enter the city's Green Zone, a special permit is required, but there is hope that people will be able to visit this city again soon.

If you muster the bravery to visit Baghdad, make a point of seeing the following sites: the Baghdad Museum, the Al-Faw Palace (Water Palace), the famous Firdos Square, the Qadisiyah Swords, the Al-Shaheed Monument, the Iraqi National Museum, the renowned Mutanabbi Street book market, the Umm Al-Qura Mosque, the Ottoman Castle, the Cathedral, Khan Murjan caravanserai, Al-Rashid Street market.
