King nebuchadnezzar built this for his wife in Babylon to remind her of her homeland?

One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World was built by Nebuchadnezzar for his wife. It is called "The Hanging Gardens of Babylon''.


Where did nebuchadnezzar live?

Nebuchadnezzar was the Chaldean king who restored Babylon and created the Hanging Gardens for his wife. The Hanging Gardens are listed among the "wonders of the ancient world". Naturally, he lived in the capital of the Chaldean Empire, Babylon. His rule is approximated at 1100 BC BCE.


Why are people so fascinated by the hanging gardens of Babylon?

Because while they were a wonder of the ancient world, they are now gone and we do not quite know where they were, how big they were, how they were irrigated or what they looked like.


Is hanging gardens of Babylon still standing?

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.)


Where is the hagging garden of Babylon located?

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.
