Citadel

October 27, 2014

Erbil is one of the oldest continuously inhabited settlements in the world. I spent a sunny afternoon wandering around old town Erbil, starting with the citadel. There’s a great view of the modern city from the top. (In Bosnia I also lived near a castle.)

    Who built this citadel, and when? Fascinating!
