Planning your Iraq trip
- BabylonThis ancient Babylonian capital is one of Iraq's major historic sites. Rebuilding and later neglect have damaged parts of it.

- AshurThis ancient city was an Assyrian capital.
Scams to watch for in Iraq
- Overpriced or poor-quality rugsMany rugs are heavily overpriced. Some are cheap Chinese-made rugs, so a high asking price does not mean high quality.
- Bootleg DVDsMany DVDs are bootlegs. Their quality varies, so the disc may not match your expectations.
- Shared-taxi charges added after agreementA driver may expect a tip or payment above the agreed fare because checkpoints cause extra inconvenience when carrying a foreign passenger. An agreed fare may therefore not be the final amount.
