“The first stop of our program was at al-Mutanabi Street and the Abbasid Palace in the capital, Baghdad, and then we went to the ruins of Babylon to document them and see the archaeological monuments there. After that, we arrived in Karbala to visit the holy shrines and antiquities and we will conclude our trip in Najaf, where we plan to visit the Imam Ali Holy Shrine and the largest cemetery in the world (The Valley of Peace),” said Xavier Richel from Poland.

Richel pointed out that "Iraq is safe and everyone will feel welcome here. I can on all foreigners to come to visit Iraq for its valuable antiquities.”
