IRAQ-BAGHDAD-DUR KURIGALZU-ANCIENT SITE

Photo taken on Jan. 16, 2019 shows the ancient site of Dur Kurigalzu in the western outskirts of Baghdad, Iraq. A 30-minute drive from the center of Baghdad will take visitors to the ancient Mesopotamian site of Dur Kurigalzu, a forgotten gem nestled in the western countryside of the city. Once a favorable destination for picnics by Baghdadi families at weekends, the site has been neglected by consecutive governments and rarely visited by locals for the past 16 years.
