  • Marhaba from Baghdad! Come with me to see if my $40 would be enough to last me a day. To start the day I had a great Kaki with warm milk for breakfast with lovely people giving us warm welcome and free breakfast food. Then I headed to a bazaar and walked around with live animal market and even tried a fresh orange juice. Then I used a 10 minute ride to go to Iraq's first co-working space called The Station Foundation, where I met young entrepreneurs like me. For lunch I got a mix of salads at this cafeteria at Iraq's first crossfit gym. Next I take a taxi towards a local sweets place and got myself a Kunafa. At night I take a taxi to Al-Mutanabbi Street with a bustling Night Market and great restaurants to visit. I decided to try a tea house that served shisha and had a great time with some local Iraqis, while showing us around after.

    Every country has its own characteristics, so do not mix green with dry. Great Iraq was never part of Iran. Rather, it was an occupier, and you, like all occupiers, disappear and no longer exist. Long live free Iraq and the Arab countries, and Palestine will inevitably return free.

    Here is a breakdown of how you could spend $40 in a day in Baghdad, Iraq:
    1. Breakfast at a local café - $5: Start your day with a traditional Iraqi breakfast, which may include delicious flatbread, olives, cheese, and tea.
    2. Visit the National Museum of Iraq - $5: Explore the rich history of Iraq at this museum, which houses artifacts dating back thousands of years.
    3. Lunch at a local restaurant - $10: Enjoy a tasty meal of kebabs, rice, and salad at a local eatery.
    4. Visit the Baghdad Zoo - $5: Spend the afternoon exploring this historic zoo, which reopened in 2003 after being closed for many years.
    5. Shopping at a local market - $10: Pick up some souvenirs and gifts at one of Baghdad's bustling markets, such as Shorja Market or Al Zawraa Park Market.
    6. Dinner at a traditional Iraqi restaurant - $10: End your day with a delicious meal of Iraqi specialties, such as masgouf (grilled carp) or kubba (stuffed meatballs).
    Total: $40
    Of course, prices may vary depending on where you choose to eat and shop, but this budget should give you a good idea of how to spend a day in Baghdad on $40.

    3:03 there are actually sooooo many restaurants in Baghdad that looks like this or as modern in their design, many times even more modern then this one, and the restaurants have to also offer good food with reasonable enough praises to gain a popularity that people would mention their names. Suij Al Reef holds up as popular food restaurant while Al- Faqma as popular sweetsrestaurants for years now.
    4:35 Objection, we put alot of efforts in both genders hair cuts, it's almost crazy
    5:31 that happens, not that much but happens
    5:53 should've gone to Al- Zawraa park, it's the most popular in the Baghdad.
    Overall you missed alot of points, like going to Al Mansour street, or mentioning how Americans cannot survive a ride in a taxi in a busy traffic because you kinda need to be a car racer from how risky it gets (nobody dies as much as you think it's actually gets fun sometimes lol). Baghdad is a big city and i feel like only the smallest snippets were shown. Do come and have an experience of our amazing taxi drivers we'd laugh at ya'll 😂
