Buy[edit]

Eat[edit]

  • 1 Alsajad Kebab Restaurant, +964 780 933 2506. 06:00-23:00 daily. This could be an interesting place to go if you want to eat at a kabob house.

Sleep[edit]

  • 1 Princes Tower Hotel and Restaurant, +964 782 150 2516. In a city of few hotels, an aged specimen with wallpaper that has probably absorbed many years of cigarette smoke awaits, but at least you can get some decent Iraqi fare in the restaurant.
