i went to iraq several times in the summer and i was fascinated by it. obviously now is not the right time to go as the war is still on but...i went when saddam was in power! now...of course you cannot say his name but he who would want to? apart from that it was great fun! went to see babylon, malwiya and a whole bunch of other stuff and some mosques there which were archietectly beautiful. the people there are warm and welcoming and generally friendly. the summers are very hot though but coming from england no matter how hot it is you appreicate it!!!! :) facilities are difficult there because of the situation but you would actually be surprised what you can get! some shops bring imported goods from jordan and technology there is cheap and great! restuarants are lively with music and good food! you do have to take a blood test when you arrive at the border but i broughy my own syringe just in case! the drive there (as there no planes) is long and tiring espeically in the summer as its hot and humid but its worth it. i mainly reccommend going to iraq because its so mmisunderstood and portrayed in the media as awful its actually not that bad but of course you must know someone there because the situation when i went (was better than now) but still ruined by bombs and such you wouldnt know where to go as the catering for tourists isnt very good. nonetheless for what these people have gone through they are remarkebly smiley and friendly and compared to some middle eastern countries relaxed and free. try it out!

I gave you a very helpful not because your review was excellent, no because it does need a little editing but because you wrote something dfifferent to the media, usually people say bad things about iraq and what a horrible place it is to visit but you changed peoples minds you wrote the advantages of iraq which is a difference for once. Although if you edit your review make it into paragraphs-each paragraph write a subject and make each paragraph at least 4-8 lines people may rate higher, write about the costs, people, your opinion, your experience, sighseeing, entertainment etc. Take care, Zee.
