The Ishtar Gate of Babylon, Berlin, Germany.

Man, I wish more cultures had built with lapis lazuli. Shit looks so gorgeous.

They literally destroyed the original gate, and used the remnants to rebuild it in their capital, like legos. They actually made the new bricks out of the original bricks using authentic 2500 year old processes.

Did they like put a net over the beard?

ISIS would blow it up

Isn't Babylon just ruins and desert these days anyway?

Seems fair enough

If I had a time machine, that would be one of my top 3 places to visit.
After proper vaccinations and whatnot.
