The only thing the Bible tells us concerning the Garden of Eden’s location is found in Genesis 2:10-14, “A river watering the garden flowed from Eden; from there it was separated into four headwaters. The name of the first is the Pishon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold…The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the entire land of Cush. The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.” The exact identities of the Pishon and Havilah rivers is unknown, but the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are well known. If the Tigris and Euphrates mentioned there are the same rivers by those names today, that would put the Garden of Eden somewhere in the middle east, likely in Iraq. People have searched for the Garden of Eden for centuries to no avail. There are various locations that people claim to be the original location of the Garden of Eden, but we cannot be sure. What happened to the Garden of Eden? The Bible does not specifically say. It is likely that the Garden of Eden was completely destroyed in the Flood.

Based on the description in the book of Genesis, the Garden of Eden was probably a valley just east of mount Sahand in northern Iran.

It is assumed by Bible scholars to have been in Armenia,near it's current capital. From the story of adam & eve to Noah and the flood,all these events are described as taking place in Armenia,not Palestine.

I think it is behind the veil in Iran. Behind the veil, you ask? Apocolypsis means "raising the veil". I think it is guarded by the angel placed at the gates, and we can't see it. Crazy idea?
