This collection highlights Baghdad’s evolution from ancient Mesopotamia to the modern era. It features the National Museum of Iraq, home to one of the world's most significant collections of Mesopotamian antiquities, and the 14th-century BCE Dur-Kurigalzu ziggurat. Modern landmarks include the 204-meter Baghdad Tower and Al Salam Palace. The list also covers essential infrastructure like the Al Jumhuriya and Sarafiya bridges, which serve as vital links across the Tigris River, alongside the historic Abu Hanifah Mosque in the Adhamiyah district.
