Iraq, often referred to as the “Cradle of Civilization,” is a land of profound historical and cultural significance. Located in the heart of the Middle East, it shares borders with Turkey to the north, Iran to the east, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia to the south, and Jordan and Syria to the west. This region, known as Mesopotamia, is where some of the earliest human civilizations emerged, with the mighty Tigris and Euphrates rivers nourishing the development of the Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, and Assyrian empires. It was here that writing, law, and urbanization first took shape, leaving behind legendary sites such as Babylon, home to the fabled Hanging Gardens, and the ancient city of Ur, believed to be the birthplace of Abraham.
Beyond its ancient wonders, Iraq’s diverse landscapes range from the lush marshlands of the south—often called the “Venice of the Middle East”—to the rugged mountains of Kurdistan in the north, where ancient traditions and breathtaking natural beauty await. Cities like Baghdad, once the intellectual and cultural heart of the Islamic Golden Age, still echo with the legacy of scholars, poets, and explorers.
