Is there really such thing as Hanging Garden of Babylon ?

Question

There isn't much evidence .

Answer 1

Yes, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon once existed, as archaeological excavations have proven.

"More recent archaeological excavations at the ancient city of Babylon in Iraq uncovered the foundation of the palace. Other findings include the Vaulted Building with thick walls and an irrigation well near the southern palace. A group of archaeologists surveyed the area of the southern palace and reconstructed the Vaulted Building as the Hanging Gardens. However, the Greek historian Strabo had stated that the gardens were situated by the River Euphrates. So others argue that the site is too far from the Euphrates to support the theory since the Vaulted Building is several hundreds of meters away. They reconstructed the site of the palace and located the Gardens in the area stretching from the River to the Palace. On the river banks, recently discovered massive walls 25 m thick may have been stepped to form terraces... the ones described in Greek references."

Answer 2

An article about the ancient city of Babylon says this: " Streets ran through the city from the gates in the massive walls. The Processional Way, the main boulevard, was paved and the walls alongside it were decorated with lions, dragons, and bulls in symbol of honored gods. Nebuchadnezzar ll repaired and enlarged the old palace and built a summer palace some 2 km (1.5 mi.) to the north. He also built a great structure of vaulted archways, tier upon tier, known as the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and famed as "a wonder of the ancient world."

All such information comes from written history that has been discovered or recorded in one form or another, and passed on to the next generation, as is all written history.
To our delight and for our information.
