Iraqi Kurdistan Series - Part 2 - Jerwan, Lalish, Alqosh, Duhok - TEA MAGE PRODUCTIONS

The second day of my Kurdish adventure starts the morning at the oldest aqueduct on Earth, and possibly the mechanism that helped feed the hanging gardens of Babylon, if they existed in Nineveh (Mosul). Next I got a great experience in Lalish, the holiest city of the Yazidi religion. After Lalish, and some military checkpoints, we spent time in Alqosh, the most Christian city in Iraq, and possibly the last one. A Chaldean mountainside church and cave system, Jewish synagogue holding the tomb of Nahum, and the oldest churches in central Alqosh were all mind-blowing to see firsthand. Stopping on our way to Duhok at a displaced people's camp, we tried our best to relate to some kids, and as we gazed were confronted with the harsh reality of our world and its conflicts.  Lastly, Duhok was a fun final destination, filled with food and a nice winding-down feel.
