Seven Days Iraqi Kurdistan
Years and year's conflict, war and struggle in this territory, plays antidote role against war malady. Presently Iraqi Kurdistan in a warlike country exercises and experiences grains of life, peace and tranquility. Erbil, Soleimaniyeh and Halabcheh are cities that I saw this hope to life in there. At seven days trip to these 3 cities that start from overland Tamarchin Border and end in Bashmagh border.

Cemetery of Victims
The Kurdish peshmerga guerrillas, supported by Iran, liberated Halabja in the final phase of the Iran-Iraq War. On March 16, 1988, after two days of conventional artillery attacks, Iraqi planes dropped gas canisters on the town. The town and surrounding district were attacked with bombs, artillery fire, and chemical weapons, the latter of which proved most devastating. At least 5,000 people died as an immediate result of the chemical attack and it is estimated that a further 7,000 people were injured or suffered long term illness.
