Backpacking in Iraq

This must be some kind of joke.

Experience Backpacking in Restructured Iraq

Backpacking is one of the forms of low-cost international travel available. That is why many travellers are sorting to this kind of adventure. It gives them mobility and flexibility that they need to roam around a particular place.

There are many places around the world where backpacking is an ideal travel. But who would ever thought that Iraq is one of it? After the war between the coalition forces and the Republican Guards of ousted Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, what had been left for Iraq, which is considered to be the world's cradle of civilization?

Backpacking Iraq: A Good Idea or Not?

Many people argue about Iraq being a dangerous place to visit after the war. The war produced shortages in food, rebellions, and lack of medicine throughout the country. Foreign backpackers and tourists are known to be kidnapped and even some even killed by rebels loyal to their former leader Saddam Hussein. This is really not one of the best countries to go backpacking, or is it?
