Al-Qurnah


Al-Qurnah (Qurna) is a small town in southern Iraq about 74 km northwest of Basra, within the town of Nahairat.〔(Qurna, Iraq )〕 Qurna (Arabic for connection/joint) is located at the confluence point of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers join to form the Shatt al-Arab.〔 The folklore holds Qurna to have been the site of the Garden of Eden. An ancient jujube tree (recently dead) is locally celebrated and shown to the tourist as the actual Tree of Knowledge noted in the Bible
==Current conditions==
There is the small Qurna Tourist Hotel built during Saddam Hussein's dictatorship in order to encourage tourism for the region, however it is most likely not in use now.〔(War Takes Its Toll on the Garden of Eden )〕 As of the start of the Iraq War in 2003, conditions at the site were reportedly woeful.〔(BBC - History - The Lost Palaces of Iraq )〕 Cracked pavement and bullet holes along with the poor condition of the tree itself made future tourism seem out of the question.〔(e.thePeople : Article : The Legendary Garden of Eden Now a Wasteland )〕 However, photographic evidence seen below and a certain amount of western presence has made it a viable tourist destination once again.〔
