WOW, the “Iraqi Pilgrimage Food in Ancient Babylon” video was a beautiful Treat!!! Thank you for the front-row seat of the fantastic people and the historical iconic ancient city of Babylon, Iraq. The hospitality shown to you and Tasos throughout this trip was excellent. It was amazing to learn that the battle of Karbala, a symbolic event, feeding people free food in remembrance of the history of the ones that did not have food and water during the battle was remarkable. I enjoyed the historical structure of ancient Babylon ( Gate of God). I love that we got to see a visual tour of the ancient city. I love the food and know you enjoyed the variety served, especially your favorite shawarma and lamb and my fav eggplant. ( did you see Tasos face when he tried the shawarma 😊😊). Another outstanding video. I mostly enjoy the story behind the culture and history of Iraq. Thank you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hopefully David's videos help to boost the Iraqi tourism industry. The food looks amazing and the hospitality is top notch.Europe and North America have some amazing things to see and foods to eat but the prices are way too steep and the hospitality is usually lacklustre as most place are only interested in your money.
@@kartofle123 Yes, It definitely will boost in lots of ways. You can also help by sharing Davidsbeenhere's videos and content with friends and everyone you know. It will significantly help if you continue giving him A “like/ thumps up on all this content. He enjoys learning about cultures, foods, and history and meeting new people worldwide. He is passionate and loves what he does it show in his videos.
Wow. this is absolutely amazing. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart Devi. I've gone back through a lot of older comments and saw there was a bunch of yours I hadn't responded to. I can't thank you enough and I Hope you are having a beautiful Sunday as well.
David, I want to commend you on your openness and social intuitiveness. You just blend in and out of crowds and do it with so much appropriate cultural sensitivity. I'm catching all the Arabic they're saying and without u knowing the language u capture the essence of what is being said. Takes a special human to perceive that. Well done. Also congratulations on stepping onto the most ancient earth soil of all and the birthplace of humanity
To help feed the hungry is something that mankind should always remember those that suffer and not able to have as much as some. I think is honorable to keep this memory and and keep the love an giving to those in need alive. This is remarkable. The battle of Karbala was so hard on the people. And to know people could help feed those that needed help .We are supposed to help each other an I love that they keep this alive today ♥ to be in the city of Babylon would be an amazing memory. So much biblical history and to walk in the foot steps of the ancestors would be unforgettable. Bless them. Such a site to see wow. Blessed to even see you there an Tasos That would be wild to be where Sandam Hussain was. You making your sounds walking through ancient Babylon lol. After that some delish food. Looks amazing. Really would love to travel as you do. To see the world is a dream for me . I like that we can see it through your eyes .Thank you♥
I know you’re trying to show respect by doing prayer hands and bowing while saying thank you, but they don’t do that there. Instead, try putting your hand on your heart while saying thank you.

So nice to see the other side of the world David...thank you. So much history. Head gear looks good on you. It looks as though the heat was a bit to much for you guys at times.
Hi me and my mom love watching your videos have you ever think about going to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 I see you travel a lot god bless keep making more video ❤️🥰
Davidsbeenhere: David, this one was a WOW. Imagine feeding so many people at once for free. Incredible indeed. Soups in Iraq look healthy. Dare I say it that Iraqi food is healthy food compared to what I have seen in other countries. I love how the people gather around. Remember the Pied Piper of Hamelin? !!!. Babylon is amazing with all that history behind it. Too much to talk about. Mesopotamia Babylon Iraq. I can remember the days of Saddam Hussein's reign and I remember when they stripped the palace after the fall of Saddam Hussein. As for the palace; what a massive building. What size bed for such a gigantic bedroom, dare I say " king-sized" bed 🤣🤣🤣. So now I know why they use so much blue in their designs. Simply stunning. And to see that some of these ruins are still standing as strong as ever. So much history there. As we moved on to the food, I love the food but I will have chicken instead. And I was waiting to see what they did with the okra (stewed). Jafar looks like a traditionalist when it comes to food. And for all the naysayers, that's called a communal plate where everyone eats from it and with the fingers too. Nice finish to the meal with a cup of hot chai. And David, they probably would have brought out a bed for you to sleep too. An honorary Iraqi. The Iraqis are a very nice, hospitable and kind people. So let me end my comment with this, "Never judge a book by it's cover". Good one David. Learned a lot. Keep it up. Now let's see what's next.🙏👼🇹🇹🇨🇦
The Battle of Karbala...the significance of feeding everyone for free.....was great to know ...food is a blessing ..no one should be refused food. Babylon the ancient city...the view from the Palace just amazing and with you and Tasos touring ..was relly nice to see. Also the The Blue Gate..The lion of Babylon...so much History . Thanks as always David for another awesome video and safe travels.
When you are in babylon, I was to say something for you, in khur- Aan the surah (Terni v jaithuni baadal balad) see the meaning of that surah you will get complete knowledge about gilt countrys wich was ufritis&tigris delta&some more information, you ask your friend who was with you,ask Ali he will teach you,go visit hanging gardens also, Try for that haging gardens,
This is what Imam Ali and our 11 other imams taught us to deal with other people from other backgrounds and believes..Imam Ali had a historical speech when he said (( People are two sorts,either your brother in Religion or your Equivalent in Humanity)) This is the clear difference between SHIAASIM and other Terrorist groups under name of Islam.
It was less of a battle and more of a massacre. 72 people( many of the family of the Holy Prophet Mohammed) against the caliph Yazid’s army who was of Umayyad dynasty. Umayyad were enemies of Muslims and the Prophet. Including Yazid’s ancestors
