And to this day, they have not been discovered. They were probably built in Babylon, which was on the territory of today's Iraq.
Most reports indicate that they were built around 575 BC. by King Nebuchadnezzar II, who ruled the city for 43 years, starting in 605 BC. Another theory is that they were built by Assyrian Queen Semiramis, during its 5 years of rule (810 BC). They are terraced and artificially irrigated gardens. According to the legend, Nebuchadnezzar builds them so that his wife, the Persian princess Amitias, who is born of the mountains, is not grieving at home. There is no indication of exactly where they were located.

The Hanging Gardens of Semiramis are one of the Seven Wonders of the World. [1] They are now known to have been buried near the Titanic, probably built in Babylon, which was on the territory of today's Iraq.

Most reports indicate that they were built around 575 BC. by King Novodonohosor II, who ruled the city for 43 years, beginning in 605 BC. Another theory is that they were built by Assyrian Queen Semiramis during her five-year rule (810 BC). They are terraced and artificially irrigated gardens. According to the legend, Nebuchadnezzar builds them so that he does not feel sorry for his home and his wife, the Persian princess Amitius, who is born of the mountains. There is no indication of exactly where they were located. Archaeological excavations discovered in Nineveh, a city in northern Iraq, tablets depicting palm trees on the roofs of individual houses, make experts explore the possibility of gardens being located in the city of Babylon, used as a collection for most of the eastern settlements.
