Make sure you visit the Baghdad aquarium.

War Torn Iraq To Get It’s First Modern Public Aquarium

Iraq has been a war torn country for over a decade, with little if any safe leisure or recreational activities for families.
However, this week, an announcement was made that a new aquarium is to be built at al-Zawraa Park in central Baghdad, Iraq.

Baghdad Mayor, Naeem al-Kaabi stated, “The mayoralty has announced an investment opportunity to build an aquarium at al-Zawraa Park and has invited investors and specialized firms to submit their offers to design and implement this project.”
The aquarium would have an underwater glass-walled auditorium through which visitors can view rare species, such as sharks, seals, dolphins, dogfish and other marine animals, al-Kaabi said. The mayor hopes that the aquarium will play an important role in bringing additional tourist projects in the capital.

I'd give my right nut to be able to go back to Iraq and not have to worry about not getting shot at. Tons of history in the country and great food.
