Tigris River and the amazing Bekhal waterfalls in Iraq's desert! EP25

From Duhok we first went to the shore of Tigris river. One of the lifelines of Mesopotamia, the land between two rivers: Tigris and Euphrates. We then went further to Amedi, an ancient city housing Assyrian Christians as well as Muslims. We visited an old Assyrian church before we continued to Bekhal Waterfalls. A canyon-like area near Shaqlawa, north of Erbil.

I don't know anything about Iraq before watching your videos. It's interesting to go on a journey with two of you and hear your explanation about geography, culture and history. The introduction of the toilet spray is funny 😆

[@heraldocosta1469]

Btw. The spray in the toilet its the for person to clean then self, after used the toilet, not just clean the the toilet. Its very hygienic.

The best time to visit Kurdistan is during Nawroz (Kurdish New Year) in March. The weather is perfect and the nature is beautiful. Hope you enjoyed your visit and come back in the future.

"Iraq to Kurdistan" is like "China to Taiwan"

[@joellapaz6724]

no wearing of bathing suits at the falls?

[@julianawong2169]

Found in all Muslim countries, the toilet spray is multipurpose but its primary use is to clean up after urinating and defecating. The oldest country in the world. The Garden of Eden is still there. It would bring great joy to visit Iraq one day. The fish looked so delicious. I am hungry. Thank you.

[@marcknight4568]

Euphrates is pronounced like freight and not like rat. I think this country dialect is relaxed 😌
