Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Machko Cafe and The Citadel of Erbil, Iraq
Machko is the oldest cafe in the city where many locals and foreigners visit regularly. The very Kurdish vibe of the cafe and their tasty tea makes it a very attractive spot for anyone who visits the city. Erbil Citadel is a fortified settlement on top of an imposing ovoid-shaped tell (a hill created by many generations of people living and rebuilding on the same spot) in the Kurdistan region, Erbil Governorate. A continuous wall of tall 19th-century façades still conveys the visual impression of an impregnable fortress, dominating the city of Erbil. The citadel features a peculiar fan-like pattern dating back to Erbil’s late Ottoman phase. Written and iconographic historical records document the antiquity of settlement on the site – Erbil corresponds to ancient Arbela, an important Assyrian political and religious centre – while archaeological finds and investigations suggest that the mound conceals the levels and remains of previous settlements. |
