Fadhil Al-Saaegh, chief executive of tour operator Al-Rafidain, said the country was "120 percent safe" and guaranteed to "put a smile on the face" of travelers thanks to its unrivalled archaeological attractions.

伊拉克旅游 放120个心

       一个经历了战火硝烟和恐怖袭击的国家不太可能高居理想旅游目的地的榜单。但是,据英国《每日邮报》报道,一家旅行社却为英国人开辟了一条去伊拉克旅游的路线。

       这条伊拉克拉菲丁旅游线的负责人费迪勒•沙耶赫表示,现在伊拉克是“百分之一百二十的安全”,而且在游览过无与伦比的古建筑景观后,游客们肯定会非常满意。

       这种经典伊拉克7日游需要1200英镑。
