I saw a documentary about that. I think it's highly unlikely though. Over a period of thousands of years, the terrain would have changed massively. One of the rivers of Eden even disappeared.
Also, the tree of eternal life was in the garden (thus the angels guarding it so no one would enter it). Is there a tree in that garden that, if you eat from it, you'll live eternally. Or are there angels keeping people from going in there? I don't think so. I imagine, if the garden was a literal place, then it's long gone.
I would be careful about taking all that too literally. There were other people around by the time that Cain was banished. I suspect that God took Adam and Eve aside to start to teach us. Or, Adam and Eve could have been symbolic characters, Adam of man and Eve of woman.

How could the Garden of Eden be found? Didn't that happen a long, long, time ago? That area of land may still exist, but how can it be proved that it is the Garden of Eden when the Bible gives on exact location?

There was a show on the History Channel or the Discovery Channel awhile back that traced the Garden to a particular valley along the border between two middle eastern nations, I believe Afghanistan and Iraq. Maybe Turkey. Two of the rivers were easy to identify. The other two were found because their names were very similar to ancient citys nearby. The valley had a high mountainous 'wall' on one side, and it was filled with scrub brush. It isn't very garden like anymore.

The Garden of Eden was God's Garden Laboratory. It was teleported back to Heaven when Adam and Eve chose to brave the world by choosing their own destiny - Think about that.

Everyone points to the area in upper Iraq/Turkey (Messopotamia) where two of the four rivers exist today. However, everyone also forgets about the fact that the earth was flooded and the terrain changed significantly (including the location of rivers) about 4500 years ago.
Adam died (spiritually) at the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the middle of the Garden of Eden. Isaac was offered on a wooden alter, on a mountain of Moriah. Jesus died one a tree (cross) just outside the city of Jerusalem. Does anyone else see a pattern?
God bless you and keep you

the garden of eden is believed to have been in what is today, iraq. somewhere in the area between the tigris and euphrates rivers. this area has been populated since biblical times. there are no remaining artifacts , the exact location has never been proven. the entire area has been plowed, planted, built upon, fought over and traveled across for millenia.

Many Scholars believe that the Garden of Eden is somewhere near Shat El Arab.
