The Ishtar gate

 This is the magnificent Ishtar gate that King Nebuchadnezzar built in Babylon, present day Iraq. The German explorers took back all these from the site and rebuilt it in the Pergamon museum in Berlin. This Ishtar gate was one of the eight that graced Babylon. This was a smaller one, imagine the bigger one, it probably wouldn't fit here. I read this museum was rebuilt to make it bigger because of this gate, and the others including the Miletus market gate and the Pergamon altar.

Here are inscriptions made by King Nebuchadnezzar that says that he built it. The line to get in to the Pergamon was not that long but because they limit the number of visitors entering, the wait to get in was long. It took almost 2 hours to get in.It was well worth the wait.
