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.
- UrThis ancient city is linked to Sumer, one of the world's earliest great civilisations.
- Hatra and CtesiphonThese were important Parthian cities, with Ctesiphon serving as a capital.
- 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.
