Archives photos of Iraq
I don’t know about you, but I love immersing myself in the ancient times of the countries I visit and travelling through their history to feel the soul that animated the Old World and understand their past so as to better grasp their present.
In this article, I share with you my selection of old photographs of Iraq, from various sources, from the cities of Baghdad – Samarra – Sinjar – Erbil – Karbala – Najaf – Mosul – Khorsabad – Lalish – Akre – Rawanduz and other places in Iraqi Kurdistan.
