EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back in time to the ancient city of Babylon, allegedly built by Nebuchadnezzar II around 600 BC for his wife, Amyitis, who longed for her homeland in Iraq. The magnificent Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, are depicted here, with their lush terraces cascading down the slope of the hillside. These gardens, said to have been filled with exotic plants and trees brought from various parts of the empire, were irrigated using water channeled from the Euphrates River. Nebuchadnezzar II, a powerful and renowned king of Babylon, is believed to have constructed these gardens as a gift to his beloved wife, who missed the greenery and vegetation of her homeland. The gardens were a marvel of engineering and horticulture, and were said to have been so impressive that they could be seen from miles away. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon have been the subject of much debate and speculation among historians and scholars, with some questioning their existence due to the lack of concrete evidence. However, the image before us provides a tantalizing glimpse into the grandeur and splendor of this ancient wonder, a testament to the ingenuity and love of a king for his wife. The gardens were not just a source of beauty and tranquility, but also a symbol of power and wealth, reflecting the might and prosperity of the Babylonian Empire. Today, the memory of these gardens continues to captivate our imagination, inspiring us with their timeless beauty and the enduring power of love and longing.
