Syracuse, New York

A trip to New York City is the perfect occasion to visit Syracuse, the fifth most populous city in the state of New York and the county seat of Onondaga County. First inhabited by Iroquois Indians, Syracuse's area has experienced intense waves of migration since the mid 1600s, which has shaped the city into a melting-pot of different communities and one of the most important centers for commercial salt production. Today, it's a vibrant and cosmopolitan city with a wealth of cultural activities and world-class events.

Ancient Babylon
Baghdad, Iraq

Ancient Babylon

A trip to Iraq is often driven by a passion for history, and Ancient Babylon, located roughly 100 kilometres south of Baghdad, is a key attraction. Since accommodation near the site is limited, most visitors opt for a day trip from the capital. To reach Babylon, head to the Alawi car park, locally referred to as the 'garage', and ask about shared taxis or minivans heading there. The journey costs no more than 15,000 Iraqi dinars and takes about two hours. These vehicles typically drop passengers a few kilometres from the entrance, so you may need to arrange a local taxi or ask nearby residents for assistance. Currently, entrance to the archaeological site costs 25,000 Iraqi dinars, approximately $18 USD. Payment by card is possible, but it's advisable to carry cash, as foreign cards may not always be accepted. Inside, the ruins reveal a fascinating glimpse into the past. The main area consists of castle-like arches leading to wide terraces, alongside the remnants of the ancient gardens and in the distance, Saddam Hussein’s hilltop mansion looms. Access to the mansion is not guaranteed, as its opening appears to depend on the day and circumstance.

Al-Shaheed Martyrs Memorial

Al-Shaheed Martyrs Memorial is one of Baghdad’s most recognisable landmarks, commemorating the courage and sacrifice of Iraqis who fought in various wars. Designed by renowned Iraqi architect Ismail Fatah Al Turk, the monument was built between 1981 and 1983. Located about 4.5 kilometres north of Tahrir Square, near the Tigris River, the site forms part of a larger complex that includes well-maintained green spaces, trees, and an indoor park. Although the memorial is currently closed for renovations, as is the case with several historical sites in Iraq, you can always negotiate with the on-site guards for a closer look past the gate.
