This Hanging Gardens of Babylon were one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, & only one of the wonders that may have been purely legendary. They're purportedly built in the ancient city state of Babylon, near present-day Al Hillah, Babil province, in Iraq. The Hanging Gardens were not the only world wonder in Babylon; the city walls and obelisk attributed to Queen Semiramis were also featured in ancient lists of wonders.
There is some controversy as to whether the Hanging Gardens were an actual construction or a poetic creation. But I've captured this photo from Babylon Hanging Garden in Iraq. I was lucky to go there by myself and saw one of the seven wonders of ancient world.
