Overview

Iraq

Overshadowed by the Mesopotamian plain, the Iraqi territory is crossed by Tigris and Euphrates. The two rivers finally join to flow out into the Persian Gulf. Temperatures in Iraq are very high in summer. It is the hottest country in the Arabic Peninsula. However, the Arabian magic has faded out today. Only a stability and security will encourage tourists to travel round the country in peace. The main wealth of the country is its numerous religious monuments, archaeological sites and ethnic diversity.

pros

  •  Several archaeological sites.
  •  The Arabian magic.

cons

  •  Insecurity.
  •  Islamic law constraints.
