This country is one that is covered in natural beauty, such as the winding waterways of the mighty Tigris and Euphrates rivers. It is often known as the Cradle of Civilization, and this is a reference to its ancient Mesopotamian cities that are famed for their innovations in science, writing, literature, medicine, theology, and law.So, watch the video till the end let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Iraqi LATE NIGHT FOOD TOUR and STREET FOOD in NASIRIYAH IRAQ!
???????? BIL WEEKEND: |
???? TASOS:
???? VISIT MY TRAVEL BLOG:
My time in southern Iraq continued with a Late Night Street Food Tour in the Iraqi city of Nasiriyah!
Nasiriyah is very lively at night, especially because its so hot during the day. My first stop was a café along the road to get some Iraqi chai!
????SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER:
???? MY LINKTREE:
A lot of local gentlemen were hanging out in chairs on the side of the street. They were all relaxing and taking in the night. The Iraqi chai was too hot, so I poured it into a saucer to cool it off. It cools it off by at least 10 degrees!
Then, we walked down the street, past lots of other shops, to go get some food! We’d be getting some kebda, or liver and kidney kebabs! A gentleman at the shop fed me some of his. It was so tasty and smoky, with a nice iron flavor.
Next, we got some kubba saray, which is a dense dough ball similar to a matzo ball, which is stuffed with lamb. It comes with beef, tomatoes, and broth poured on top. It’s a very tasty comfort food. I love the prominence of lamb in Iraqi cuisine!
The vendor there wouldn’t accept my money. He was too kind! We arrived at the shawarma spot and headed inside. Then, I tried some chili peppers and then headed into the kitchen, where they were making burgers, samosas, and huge falafel sandwiches. I wanted a sandwich and some shawarma!
They had lots of pickles, tomatoes, cucumbers, and fries as well. I tried some falafel and some fries. The fries were still scorching hot! The vendors there couldn’t stop feeding me! They were so friendly!
Then, they started building my falafel sandwich. I added some chilies, some amba, and a cucumber-yogurt sauce called jajik. It ws very flavorful and contained nice eggplant as well. I loved adding more chilies!
Next, Jafar let me try some of his chicken shawarma. I really liked it with the amba. It was really tasty, but I was already starting to get full. The roasted eggplant in it was the absolute best! Then, I washed it down with a fruit shushie.
Then, just as we were about to leave, they asked me to try some fries, which they topped with macaroni in tomato sauce! It was unique and very tasty. Buried beneath the macaroni was an Iraqi burek, which contains lamb! It was to die for!
Then, we headed to get some sweets! We tried some nuts from a vendor and raced to the sweets shop, as all the shops would be closing within the next 20 minutes. We entered the oldest sweets shop in the sweet, where we saw lots of types of baklava, Turkish delights, biscuits, and jalebi!
The shop owner was too kind. He gave us heaping portions of multiple items to try. It was too much! Our first sweet was Nutella knafeh, which was thick with a crispy layer of noodles and doused in sugar syrup. It was the best sweet ever!
Next was a cream-filled baklava, which was a major sugar rush. We had another baklava, as well as another type of knafeh that was like pure sugar. The crispy layers in the baklava blew my mind, but the Nutella knafeh was on another level! I was ready to pop!
Finally, we headed to our final stop, which was just about to close. It was a street vendor selling khirret, a very rare and special sweet from the marshlands of southern Iraq. It’s very expensive at $50 USD for a kilo!
It’s powdery and chalky but not flavorless. It wasn’t my favorite, but I could tell it would be good with some chai! And that’s it for our nighttime street food tour of Nasiriyah, Iraq!

Iraqi Seafood Feast in Nasiriya Iraq! Iraqi Food Mountain!
???????? BIL WEEKEND: |
???? TASOS:
???? VISIT MY TRAVEL BLOG:
After a brief stop in the legendary city of Karbala, my trip through Iraq continued in Nasiriyah, a city in the southern part of the country.
There, we’d be having a traditional Mesopotamian fish dish called mahrotha at a restaurant run by Chef Ali Sido. It’s almost impossible to find in restaurants and is only usually made in people’s homes.
????SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER:
???? MY LINKTREE:
Jafar (my guide from Bil Weekend), my friend Tasos, and I headed into the kitchen to watch him work. Fish is popular in southern Iraq because of the prevalence of water there.
Mahrotha is made from dried fish, tomato paste, fresh tomatoes, and spices. Its roots come from ancient Mesopotamia, and the fish can be found in the rivers and the marshes. He boils the dried fish, tears it into smaller pieces, and remove the bones. Then, he adds the tomatoes, tomato paste, and onions.
Chef Ali was a whiz with the knife. He chopped everything super fast! Then, he added oil and butter to a pot, chopped some fresh garlic, and added them and the onions to the pot. The aroma was incredible! Then, he added the fresh tomatoes and tomato paste. The ingredients are simple, but it will be full of flavor!
Next, he added turmeric, pepper, and salt before adding the final ingredient: the dried fish. It looked and smelled amazing! Finally, you add water to the pot and cover it for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, he had some rice cooking in a separate pot. He gave me some of the hakaka, or crispy rice from the bottom!
Then, Chef Ali jumped on the appetizer, which is small fish that are breaded and fried. I watched him gut and clean the fish before salting it, dredging it in a mix of water and spices, and breading them with flour. Then, they go into the frying pan!
They came out golden brown. He added rice, two zuri (fried fish), and fresh tomatoes, onion, and lemon to our plates. He fed me some of the zuri, which was really tasty! Then, he tore up some bread, and added the mahrotha and its broth on top!
Then, you eat it tashreeb-style. It was salty and tomato-rich, and I loved the texture of the soaked bread. I usually don’t love dried fish, but this dish was exceptional! It was my favorite dish of the trip so far!
It contained some bones, so be careful. I also liked eating the zuri with a bit of lemon and bread. It was so buttery and paired well with the rice and the pickles with dates and pomegranate! The masgouf was also excellent, but the mahrotha was on another level!
Then, we headed to the back to see the dried fish before it’s boiled. It dries for two weeks! Chef Ali was so kind and friendly. Then, we drove 40 minutes to the ancient city of Ur!
Ur was a Sumerian city-state in ancient Mesopotamia. It’s known for its ruins, especially the massive Zigurrat of Ur, which stands 66 feet tall and dates back to the 21st century BC, though it was rebuilt in the 6th century BC. It’s also a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
The Sumerians invented iconographic written language and Sumerian, the two oldest forms of writing in the world. The ziggurat was discovered in 1922. Parts have been renovated while others are the original bricks.
The patron deity of Ur was the Sumerian moon god, Nanna. I climbed to the top of the stairs leading to the top of the ziggurat. On a brick, I got to see some of the original first writings there! The ziggurat is so well preserved because it was covered in sand for thousands of years!
Next, we walked to a small temple with two rooms that once served as the entrance to a passage leading to the Temple of Nanna. We also saw a royal palace and there are royal tombs nearby!
Finally, we drove to the house of the prophet Abraham. There were lots of arched passageways and a room with shelves. From the roof, we could see the number of rooms!

Chinese firms to build Iraq's Nasiriyah Airport, Sadr City
Chinese companies will build Nasiriyah Airport and nearly 90,000 houses in Sadr City in Iraq under an oil-for-projects agreement the two countries signed in 2019, an Iraqi official was quoted on Sunday as saying.
Obstacles that have obstructed the agreement over the past few months have been resolved and China would soon provide funds in exchange for the supply of 100,000 barrels of Iraqi crude, said Sabah Abdul Lateef, an adviser to the Iraqi Prime Minister.
He told the official Iraqi news agency that four major projects would be executed in Iraq shortly under the oil-for-projects deal which was finalized in September 2019 and stipulated the execution of projects in Iraq by Chinese firms in exchange for crude supplies.
The projects comprise the construction of Nasiriyah Airport in the Southern Dhi Qar Governorate, the building of nearly 90,000 houses in Sadr City in the capital Baghdad, the construction of 1,000 hospitals through Iraq and sewage networks in Baghdad.
“These projects will be carried out in line with the Iraq-China agreement after all legal issues that have faced the agreement have been resolved,” Abdul Lateef said.

Iraqi STREET FOOD MOUNTAIN in Baghdad, Iraq!! The BEST Baghdad Falafels!
???????? BIL WEEKEND: |
???? TASOS:
???? VISIT MY TRAVEL BLOG:
With evening approaching on another day in Baghdad, my friends and I decided to head out on a nighttime street food tour of the city!
My friends Jafar and Ali from Bil Weekend, and my travel buddy Tasos, and I started off at the Storytelling Monument, which is from Arabian Nights. It’s a collection of stories from the golden age of Islam, including the story of Aladdin!
????SUBSCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER:
???? MY LINKTREE:
We drove to Karada Street, where there was a flurry of activity going on. There are shops, restaurants, butchers, and more there, along with lots of traffic. We walked to King of Dates, a shop that sells sweets, honey, date syrup, and souvenirs relating to dates!
The owner was so kind and let us try some for free. I tried a madgooga, which is a date ball, that was coated in sesame seeds. It was sweet and nutty and tasted almost like chocolate.
Then, I tried another madgooga with pistachios, and another delicious one coated in coconut. They were so sweet and delicious! The shop owner there was so kind and generous. He put together an entire bag of things to gift us. I wanted to pay for something, but he wouldn’t let me at first. But then he finally let me buy a jar of honey!
As we continued down Karada Street, we found a coffee shop. It smelled amazing inside! They had tons of different varieties. But it was late, so I wouldn’t be having any.
We continued on to Zaytoun Sweets, where they make a popular diamond-shaped Iraqi bread called samoon. They sell it fresh, and it’s so popular, they had a queue out the door! They cook it is stone furnaces. I got to see the whole process of them making it!
There was also a kiosk outside selling five different types of coffee. Further on was a stand selling fresh potato chips with different flavors including chicken, barbecue, cheese, lemon, pepper, and more! You choose a bag and then they add the flavors you want.
We got a small bag and got the vinegar & salt and barbecue flavors. The vendor added the flavors and shook up the bag. They were really fresh and tasty. The vinegar gave it a bit of a tingle!
Finally, we stopped a t a shop selling falafel! They say it’s the best falafel in Baghdad! You get them in a sandwich made from samoon bread, and you can add amba to it. The falafels were crispy and made of chickpeas.
It had a nice creaminess, and the lettuce and tomatoes gave it a really good fresh feeling. I also loved that the amba gave it a sourness and sweetness! What a way to end our night!

To create this Iraq series, I teamed up with my guides at Bil Weekend ( | and my good friend and fellow travel filmmaker Tasos Karantakos (
With a new day in Mosul, Iraq dawning, I set out to explore the Nabi Yunus Bazaar and have some breakfast.
QEEMA: Our first dish was qeema, a rich chickpea stew with a bit of beef bone marrow containing curry powder, cumin, za’atar, garlic powder, and pomegrate syrup. It’s served with samoon bread and is extremely flavorful!
MAKHLAMA: Next was a mix of beef and intestines with tomatoes and eggs, served with samoon bread. On the side, the vendors gave us falafel, fried eggplant, pickles, olives, fried potatoes, and Arabic coffee.
FALAFEL: The falafels were very soft in the middle, almost like they weren’t completely done, but I loved them that way!
KNAFEH: A delicious Middle Eastern sweet that has a delicious, crispy crust and a sweet, cheesy, creamy filling.

IRAQI ROADTRIP: Baghdad to Karbala by SHARED TAXI | Iraq Travel Vlog | Iraq Travel 2023
IRAQI ROADTRIP: Baghdad to Karbala by SHARED TAXI | Iraq Travel Vlog | Iraq Travel 2023
I decide to get out of Baghdad and head to the Holy City of Karbala in Iraq. Traveling inside of Iraq is, in some ways, very easy. You just go to the local long distance car station, called garages and you can get in a car that goes to pretty much anywhere in Iraq. That being said, traveling inside of Iraq is not exactly straightforward. This is due to the multitude of checkpoints, where as a foreigner you are subject to pretty intense question. Though in the end, you will always be let through and allowed to enjoy travel inside of Iraq.
