    "A city that offends God."

    Why, then, is the city of Babylon called "the city of offense against God"? This statement comes from the Old Testament of the Bible.

    The Old Testament says that our ancestors originally spoke the same language. They found a very fertile land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, and settled there and built a city. Later, as their days got better and better, they decided to build a tower that could reach the heavens, and that was the Tower of Babel.

    They used bricks and river mud as materials for construction. Until one day, the top of the high tower has rushed into the sky. When the God Jehovah learned of this, he immediately came down from heaven to inspect it.

    When God saw it, he was shocked and angry, and thought it was a symbol of human vanity. God thought to himself that if people could build such a great tower by speaking the same language, what could not be done in the future? So God decided to confuse the language of the world, so that people could not speak to each other.

    Babylon was later called "the city of offense against God."

    The thickness of the walls of Babylon, the capital of a hundred gates, allowed a chariot drawn by four horses to turn. It is 16 kilometers long, and there are towers at intervals. The two ends of the wall rise from the banks of the Euphrates.

    On the other side of the river is the new town of Babylon, where a bridge spans the Euphrates River and connects the new city to the main city. Therefore, this wall was not only the main barrier used by the Babylonians against their enemies, but also a reliable embankment to protect the city from the flooding of the river. The city of Babylon had 100 gates made of copper, so the great Greek poet Homer called the city of Babylon "the city of a hundred gates".

    The gate of the ancient city of Babylon is called the ceremonial gate, which is more than 4 meters high and about 2 meters wide. The upper part of the gate is an arched structure, and the two sides are connected to the remaining city walls, and on the walls on both sides of the doorway are images of lions and bulls made of yellow and brown glazed bricks. The gate was so strong that it was the only one that survived the destruction of the ancient city of Babylon by the Persians in 568 BC.

    Under thousands of years of wind and rain erosion, the ancient city wall has collapsed, but this city gate is still intact.

    Passing through the city gate is a vast avenue paved with gray and pink stones, and the remnants of the avenue are still clearly visible images of lions, bulls, etc.

    It is generally believed that the "Temple of Heaven" is the legendary "Tower of Babel" Babylon Tower. However, due to its long history, the Tower of Babylon has been robbed several times, and the records that can be left are very few. One of the more valuable is a stone tablet found in the tower of the Great Mosque of Malduk, which is engraved with a description of the Babylonian tower that was deserted by Herodotus, the "father of history", during his visit to the city of Babylon in 460 BC.

    Therefore, it is generally believed that the big temple tower of Mengchang, Ma Cheng Xiangerduk Temple is Babi Tower. Later, European Renaissance painters also described it accordingly, depicting the Tower of Babel in their imagination.

    The ruins of Babylon that we see today are not the city of Babylon in the time of Hammurabi the Great. The city was completely destroyed by Sennacherib during the civil war of the Assyrian royal family in the 7th century BC. When Asahadon came to the throne, the Assyrian king began to rebuild Babylon.

    The forcibly relocated inhabitants returned, and the famous Eteminaka Monastery Tower, the Tower of Babylon, was built at this time. However, the reconstruction of Assahadong is only the beginning. The construction of the entire city of Babylon was finally completed during the reign of Nebuchadnezzar II, the Neo-Babylonian kingdom.

    The Babylonian ruins we see today are the ruins of the Neo-Babylonian period, about 2,600 years old.
