Join us to explore Hatra, the mesmerizing desert city where ancient Mesopotamian history comes alive! Discover its stunning ruins and well-preserved artifacts, making it a must-see for history lovers and adventurous travelers alike.
Hatra belongs to one of the many capitals ruling in ancient Mesopotamia. The desert city existed for nearly 500 years before it got abundant in 241 AD. During the Parthian period, the city flourished into a rich city because it was on the route between Mesopotamia and the Levant, where it goes along with other famous desert cities like Palmyra (in Syria), Baalbek (Libanon), and Petra (Jordan). The city used to have another name “Beit Elaha” which means the “House of God”. When we visit Hatra it becomes clear why it got this name.
The city outside the wall is not excavated yet. The brutal terrorist group ISIS was taking the ruins as a military base but only destroyed statues while the rest of the architectural structures are still intact.
