Baghdad is Iraq's capital city, and with a population of approximately 8 million people, it's also the largest city in the country. Located along the Tigris River, Baghdad is the second-largest city in the Arab world after Cairo. The city is known for its rich history, dating back to the 8th century, and has been a centre for Islamic and Arab culture for centuries. 
 
Baghdad quickly became a significant cultural, commercial, and intellectual centre for the Muslim world. Its location made it a hub for scholars and traders alike.  
 
Baghdad remains a city of great cultural significance. It's home to numerous historical and archaeological sites, including the Abbasid Palace, the Mustansiriya School (one of the oldest universities in the world), and the Al-Kadhimiya Mosque. 
 
Baghdad was famous for its literary and intellectual gatherings, known as the "majlis," where poets, philosophers, and scientists would meet to exchange ideas. This tradition continues today, particularly on Mutanabbi Street, which houses the city's largest book market. 
 
Modern-day Baghdad is a bustling metropolis with a diverse population. Additionally, improvements are being made, and the city is slowly rebuilding and modernizing. 
 
The city has much to offer in terms of history and culture. From the Iraq Museum, which houses artefacts from ancient Mesopotamia to the bustling markets offering traditional crafts and spices, there's a wealth of experiences for those who visit.
