::Fascinating museum! You need to leave everything outside (no begs allowed) and you need to pay with credit card. Please ask for directions, because it is not obvious where the first rooms with ancient exhibitions are (these are the best!)

::A time machine.. such a wonderful place and a nice way to spend a morning. The meusum is big and contains a handful of sections dedicated to different historical periods. It took us a little bit more than two hours to tour it. The Sumerian section, alas, was closed. It's been closed for two years for reparations. The staff is great. A very distinguished worker explained to us why the Sumerian section was closed. He said that Italy offered to renew it via UNESCO and have been postponing it for a while. I'm not sure about the validity of the information, but I found it amusing. A must visit, absolutely.

::The Iraqi Museum: A Treasure Trove of History The Iraqi Museum in Baghdad is a magnificent testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Iraq, often referred to as the “Cradle of Civilization.” Walking through its halls feels like stepping back in time, with exhibits showcasing thousands of years of human history, from ancient Mesopotamia to the Islamic Golden Age. The museum is home to some of the most remarkable artifacts in the world, including the Code of Hammurabi, intricate Sumerian carvings, Assyrian winged bulls, and treasures from the legendary city of Babylon. Each display is thoughtfully curated, providing detailed information that enhances your understanding of Iraq’s pivotal role in shaping human civilization. Beyond the artifacts, the museum itself is a symbol of resilience, having survived decades of conflict and looting. Its restoration and ongoing preservation efforts are a testament to the dedication of the Iraqi people to safeguard their heritage. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or just curious about the ancient world, the Iraqi Museum is an unforgettable experience that highlights the extraordinary legacy of one of the world’s oldest civilizations. A true gem that deserves to be celebrated globally!
