Channel 4 - Finding Babylon\'s Hanging Gardens

Channel 4. Finding Babylon\'s Hanging Gardens

A world wonder so elusive, most people have decided it must be mythical. Centuries of digging have turned up nothing. The problem is, everyone has been looking in the wrong place.

This documentary will prove the Hanging Gardens of Babylon did exist. Based on the latest extraordinary findings of leading Assyriologist Dr. Stephanie Dalley, for the first time ever it will be pinpointed exactly where the Gardens were, what they looked like and how they were constructed.

This investigation will unfold through over-looked clues in the British Museum, interrogation of established sources; new archaeological evidence in Northern Iraq and CGI reconstruction of the Gardens in their full glory.
