hanging garden of babylon

what i want to achieve
To show my perspective of the hanging garden of Babylon

Rituals, Activities and History

-The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World

-The Babylonian priest Berossus, writing in about 290 BC attributed the gardens to the Neo-Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar II, who ruled between 605 and 562 BC.

-Nebuchadnezzar II built the Hanging Gardens for his Median wife, Queen Amytis, because she missed the green hills and valleys of her homeland.

-Neo-Babylonian rulers were deeply conscious of the antiquity of their kingdom, and pursued very traditional practices.

- Ancient artworks from the heyday of Babylonia's imperial glory were treated with near-religious reverence and were painstakingly preserved.

-Trees were also sacred and worshipped, as it represented beauty, strength and wisdom and eternal life.
