No. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon have not been identified, archeologically, up to this point in time. (In ancient history, they were described as so beautiful that they were considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World.)
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon did not really hang the way their title describes. It more refers to the overhanging of the terrace.
yes and they were watered by using a system of pipes almost like irrigation
Nope. They were destroyed by earthquakes.
Unfortunately we do not know.As far as I know nobody has found the location of the famous Hanging Gardens. All that we can surmise from the historical record was that it used to exist in the city of Babylon (now Baghdad, Iraq). But as far as I know historians and archeologists have not found its whereabouts or ruins.The Hanging Gardens were one of the seven world wonders of the ancient world. The only wonder of the ancient world still standing today is the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon's ruins are about 50 miles southwest of Baghdad in Iraq. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. They were a present to Nebuchadnezzar's wife.
The hanging gardens brought a radical change in the Babylonian life. Some stories indicate the Hanging Gardens towered hundreds of feet into the air, but archaeological explorations indicate a more modest, but still impressive, height. In the heart of the desert, the gardens had all kinds of plants and trees and a number of animals. The wife of the King, Amytis, was from Persia and she didn't like the dessert so the king built the gardens. So King Nebuchadnezzar II made the city the center of Babylon.

The hanging Gardens of Babylon or the hanging Gardens of Semiramis were build by the Babylonian Emperor Nebuchadnezzer II at 600 BCE. The gardens were destroyed by earthquakes after the 2nd century BCE. Currently there are no hanging gardens although there are famous gardens in different parts of the world like Tivoli in Rome, Villa d' Este, the Vatican gardens, the gardens of Verseilles in Paris France and elswhere.

Why one, and not all seven? The Pyrimids of Egypt, The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, The Statue of Zeus at Olympia, The Pharos of Alexandria, and The Colossus of Rhodes.

Of the seven ancient wonders of the world, only the Great Pyramid of Giza is still standing. The others were all destroyed. These were the Colossus of Rhodes, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Statue of Zeus at Olympia, Lighthouse of Alexandria, Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, and the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus.
I would guess at wonders of the ancient world listed by Philo of Byzantium in 225 BC only one of which still stands :- Great Pyramid at Giza - Still standing Hanging gardens of Babylon Statue of Zeus at Olympia Temple of Artemis at Ephesus Mausoleum at Helicarnassus Colossus at Rhodes Lighthouse of Alexandria
Some accomplishments of the Chaldeans were: the sun dial, and the 7 day week. Chaldea is acually neo babalonia or new babylon, so they still had the hanging gardens, which are also an achievement.

There were seven wonders of the ancient world, one of which is still in existence - the Great Pyramid of Giza. Another would be the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, which is no longer in existence.
